function cpus
Jump to headingcpus(): CpuInfo[]
Returns an array of objects containing information about each logical CPU core.
The array will be empty if no CPU information is available, such as if the /proc
file system is unavailable.
The properties included on each object include:
[

values are POSIX-only. On Windows, the nice
values of all processors
are always 0.
os.cpus().length
should not be used to calculate the amount of parallelism
available to an application. Use availableParallelism for this purpose.
