[erlang-questions] OSX: binding schedulers to processor cores doesn't work

[Rickard Green]

Binding of schedulers has never been supported on MacOSX. I've not put much effort into it, but when I last looked into it (a long time ago) I couldn't find any functionality in MacOSX that could be used for this. This might have changed, thought. If you want to look into it, a patch implementing this is welcome.
