title: Controlling CPU Usage and Threading In Python
body: <p>I'm running a computation heavy program in Python that takes about 10 minutes to run on my system. When I look at CPU usage, one of eight cores is hovering at about 70%, a second is at about 20%, and the rest are close to 0%.Is there any way I can force the program into 100% usage of a single core? </p>
  
  <p>edit: I recognize that utilizing all 8 cores isn't a great option, but is there a way to force the one core into 100% usage?</p>
