How many cores are available in the build environment? Do they change based on the docker image? thanks.

If you want to know anything about the container that runs your build, the best solution is to SSH into it:

ubuntu@box1268:~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep processor | wc -l
32
ubuntu@box1268:~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep 'core id'
core id        : 0

The Ubuntu image ships coreutils i.e. you can simply use nproc.

When you scroll down in my log above, you can see the output of nproc.
