In my experience, MESA likes to fill whatever CPU space it can, so I tend
to use 6 cores when I'm using my laptop for other things (plotting, google,
netflix, etc) at the same time, and 8 if I'm doing a run overnight.
Definitely if MESA is running and you're on Zoom/Webex, leaving a core or
two for zoom is necessary.
