Try to use less cores. RAM bandwidth is real limiting factor there, so there always some sweet spot between CPU cores and RAM bandwidth for individual system.

For example, I use only 6 cores from 10 on my M1 Pro laptop.

That is an interesting idea. Can you tell me what is the switch for number of cores?

Use a maximum of the number of physical cores and then scale down.
