I need to run a compiler, and people have previously found that it runs well on a single core.

Now that Intel's 12th generation consumer chips have separate P-cores and E-cores, can I somehow tell the compile worker to run specifically on a P-core, so that it gets the fastest core on my machine?

    Identification of which core is which is the first part of that equation then forcing your code to run there is the second. But neither is really topical for ServerFault. https://stackoverflow.com/q/68444429 – diya Dec 15 '22 at 21:25
  • Oh, I came from https://serverfault.com/questions/571516/any-way-to-make-a-program-run-on-a-specific-core-on-launch and assumed it's the apt Stack Exchange. Sorry. Could you please suggest which will be appropriate? @diya – eccentricOrange Dec 15 '22 at 21:33

    I think it is more of a programming question and thus topical on stack over flow – diya Dec 15 '22 at 21:45
  • @eccentricOrange Then you also saw the link to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7759948/set-affinity-with-start-affinity-command-on-windows-7 in the question you linked. – Gerald Schneider Dec 16 '22 at 06:23
  • @GeraldSchneider I did, but that doesn't tell you about P-cores vs E-cores, and I couldn't find a reliable way to get that info – eccentricOrange Dec 16 '22 at 09:08
