> According to [this](https://github.com/foxlet/macOS-Simple-KVM/issues/319#issuecomment-1003775896), macOS only supports power-of-two cores. But you can increase the number of sockets to get the virtual cores you need.

#### Use more CPU Cores/SMP #### Use more CPU Cores/SMP
This will use all available cores; adjust accordingly to the day of the week: Examples:
``` `-e EXTRA='-smp 6,sockets=3,cores=2'`
-e CPU_STRING=$(nproc) \
``` `-e EXTRA='-smp 8,sockets=4,cores=2'`
`-e EXTRA='-smp 16,sockets=8,cores=2'`
This will use `-smp $(nproc)` Note, unlike memory, CPU usage is shared. so you can allocate all of your CPU's to the container.
