I apologize for the possibly stupid question, but from my reading of
the pthread manual page about PTHREAD_CONCURRENCY ("The number of concurrent
threads to be run.") and the corresponding system call, I get the impression
that restricting it to 1 wouldn't utilize multiple CPUs. E.g. if I had an
application with 2 parallely executable threads and a machine with 2 CPUs,
those two threads would be alternatively scheduled, but never running really
in parallel.

Is my interpretation of manual pages correct, or is there some "catch" ?
