I have recently rebuilt a Linux machine ( Redhat 7.3 ). I have just noticed
that when i do the top command it shows 4 CPU'S, the strange thing is  that
i only have 2 CPU's in the machine. I had a e-mail from one of my users
complaining about jobs running slower than expected on this machine as per
text below. Can someone tell me why this is the case and how i get my
machine back to showing 2 CPU's!

job running 20% slower on lin14 than expected. 4 cpus were being monitored
on lin14 instead of 2.
