[section:processor_binding Processor binding]

For some applications it is convenient to bind the __worker_threads__ to processors/cores of the system. For this purpose __fn_bind_to_processors__ must
be given to constructor instead __pool_size__ so that a __worker_thread__ is created an bound the the core.

``
	typedef boost::task::static_pool<
		boost::task::unbounded_queue< boost::tp::fifo >
	> pool_type;

	// constructs thread-pool with worker-threads as
	// CPUs/Cores are available on the system
	pool_type pool( pool_type::bind_to_processors() );
``

The constructor takes additional arguments for the [link_work_stealing work-stealing algorithm] and [link_queue high-] and [link_queue low-watermark] too.

[note __boost_task__ does provide this feature only for Windows, Linux, AIX, HP-UX, Solaris and FreeBSD.]
