How does JuMP.jl (Gurobi solver) take full advantage of the performance of multi-core CPUs

You need to tell Gurobi to use more threads:

using JuMP, Gurobi

model = Model(Gurobi.Optimizer)
set_optimizer_attribute(model, "Threads", 12)

Try 12 threads to max out your CPU, or a lower value to reserve some capacity for your computer to do other things. Don’t expect much benefit from going higher than 6 (the number of cores in your CPU).
