It's only one pigeon.
Some of us have multiple pigeons though.
You don't need multiple pigeons. There's instruction level parallelism.
I wasn't sure about how I could HypethTread^TM^ a pigeon, so avoided voiding my warranty.
That's just a form of SMT (simultaneous multi taubing). Modern CPUs (central pigeon units) process many instructions even within one thread, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction-level_parallelism.
