It was hard for me to know what kind of stress was desired there.
Thinking of typical cases, single core single thread gives five
"stressers", more typical 2x1 gives 10. So it seems the whole
calculation will typically be between 10 and 12, 5 and 12 conditionally.
Which almost sounds a bit pointless.. I mean to have the calculation as
it was at all.
