      I want to ensure I'm taking full advantage of all 6 cores. Will nuttx pthreads be scheduled across all 6 cores?

      Thanks!

        Hey, @Stanton

        According to https://developer.sony.com/develop/spresense/docs/sdk_tutorials_en.html#_how_to_build_16
        The default setting for feature/smp is dual-core (2-core). If you want to change the number of cores, change the number of SMP_NCPUS=2 in the sdk/configs/feature/smp/defconfig file. You can specify from 2 to maximum 6.
