Wrong number of cores

[Ausverstand]

In newData, the number of cores in the Xeon Phi 7290 is stated to be 272 cores. I think this is a typo. According to the specs. it should be 72 cores only.

This should be an easy fix!

The reason why the Xeon Phi 7290 is listed with 272 cores is that the device is only really useful when using 4 threads per core. So even though the hardware provides about 70 cores (actually, any number between 68 and 72 depending on yield), the programmer really needs to think of much higher parallelism.

One can argue in favor of either the physical number of cores or the logical number of cores. For the sake of consistency, I suggest to leave it as-is.
