//Generally, shoving as many threads as possible into the simulation won't produce the best results on systems with multiple logical cores per physical core.
//Environment.ProcessorCount reports logical core count only, so we'll use a simple heuristic here- it'll leave one out of eight logical cores idle.
//For the common Intel quad core with hyperthreading, this'll use 7 logical cores and leave the last one free to be used for other stuff.
//This is by no means perfect. To maximize performance, you'll need to profile your simulation and target hardware.
//Generally, the more memory bandwidth you have relative to CPU compute throughput, and the more collision detection heavy the simulation is relative to solving,
//the more benefit you get out of SMT/hyperthreading.
//For example, if you're using the 64 core quad memory channel AMD 3990x on a scene composed of thousands of ragdolls,
//there won't be enough memory bandwidth to even feed half the physical cores. Using all 128 logical cores would just add overhead.
//It may be worth using something like hwloc to extract extra information to reason about.
