/proc/cpuinfo are hyperthreaded cores, as exposed to the OS. For basically all the modern multi-core Intel Xeon CPUs you can divide that by 2. It seems you can also find out by looking at physical ID and "cpu cores". On a 64 (hyperthreaded) cores machine, I see physical ID 0..4 and cpu cores 8 in this case, which would mean 8*4=32.


small correction: "physical ID 0..3"
