Anybody with this problem find a solution? I have tried “ignored settings” from  
[here](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/julia-num-threads-in-vs-code-windows-10-wsl/28794/13) and it can confirm this did not work. I have no idea what to do. Threads.nthreads() is 8, but I use Sys.CPU\_THREADS is 4 and the CPU usage rarely breaks 400%. when I Threads.@threads 😭
