## Hyperthreading

You can tell whether hyperthreading is enabled by looking at the `cores` and `threads` properties.

The `cores` property represents physical cores. The `threads` property represents logical cores.

Hyperthreading is enabled when `threads` is double the amount of `cores`.

Hyperthreading is disabled when `threads` is equal to the amount of `cores`.
