documentation for your GUI of choice for information about how to use
Stockfish with it.
-This version of Stockfish supports up to 64 CPUs, but has not been
-tested thoroughly with more than 4. The program tries to detect the
-number of CPUs on your computer and sets the number of search threads
-accordingly, but please be aware that the detection is not always
-correct. It is therefore recommended to inspect the value of the
-*Threads* UCI parameter, and to make sure it equals the number of CPU
-cores on your computer. If you are using more than eight threads, it is
-recommended to raise the value of the *Min Split Depth* UCI parameter to 7.
