- name
Model name of the processor.
- codename
Name given by manufacturer to all chips with this architecture.
- cores
Number of compute cores per processor.
- threads
The number of threads represents the number of simultaneous calculations that can be ongoing in the processor.
- base_clock
Base speed for the CPU in GHz.
- boost_clock
Single-core max speed for the CPU in GHz.

Examples
library(ggplot2)
# CPU base speed
ggplot(cpu, aes(x = company, y = base_clock)) +
geom_boxplot() +
labs(
x = "Company",
y = "Base Clock (GHz)",
title = "CPU base speed"
)
# Process node size vs. boost speed
ggplot(cpu, aes(x = process, y = boost_clock)) +
geom_point() +
labs(
x = "Process node size (nm)",
y = "Boost Clock (GHz)",
title = "Process node size vs. boost speed"
)
