   // The following code is a temporary fix for a perf problem on Intel's Meteor Lake CPUs. The Intel compute platform has
   // a hybrid architecture that some CPU cores runs significant slower than the others. If we distribute our compute work
   // evenly to all CPU cores, the slowest CPU core will drag the performance down. So, instead, we reduce the total number
