Research direction

Start by reproducing the warning from the DLIO entry point while recording the output of the nproc command and the configured I/O thread count. Trace how DLIO determines available cores and compare that value with the reported 2 cores. Done means the discrepancy is explained and the warning or its documented fix is corrected.
