+ coredown [count]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ The coreup utility enables all CPU cores on the machine.
+
+ The coredown utility disables all CPU cores on the machine
+ expect the CPU 0.
+
+ This is designed as a workaround for virtual machines that
+ have input performance issues (keyboard input lag and keys
+ getting stuck) when more than one CPU core is online.
+
+OPTIONS
+ No options are supported.
+
+OPERANDS
+ The following operand is supported:

+ Enable the first count CPU cores and disable the rest.
+
+EXIT STATUS
+ If the coreup and coredown utility fails it will exit with one
+ of the following statuses:
+
+ 0 Successful completion.
+
+ 1 An error occurred.
+
+NOTES
+ The is no difference between the coreup(1) and coredown(1)
+ utilities when the count operand is specified.

+SEE ALSO
+ None.
