CPU config xmd-stak
/*
* Thread configuration for each thread. Make sure it matches the number above.
* low_power_mode - This can either be a boolean (true or false), or a number between 1 to 5. When set to true,
* this mode will double the cache usage, and double the single thread performance. It will
* consume much less power (as less cores are working), but will max out at around 80-85% of
* the maximum performance. When set to a number N greater than 1, this mode will increase the
* cache usage and single thread performance by N times.
*
* no_prefetch - Some systems can gain up to extra 5% here, but sometimes it will have no difference or make
* things slower.
*
* affine_to_cpu - This can be either false (no affinity), or the CPU core number. Note that on hyperthreading
* systems it is better to assign threads to physical cores. On Windows this usually means selecting
* even or odd numbered cpu numbers. For Linux it will be usually the lower CPU numbers, so for a 4
* physical core CPU you should select cpu numbers 0-3.
*
* On the first run the miner will look at your system and suggest a basic configuration that will work,
* you can try to tweak it from there to get the best performance.
*
* A filled out configuration should look like this:
* "cpu_threads_conf" :
* [
* { "low_power_mode" : false, "no_prefetch" : true, "affine_to_cpu" : 0 },
* { "low_power_mode" : false, "no_prefetch" : true, "affine_to_cpu" : 1 },
* ],
* If you do not wish to mine with your CPU(s) then use:
* "cpu_threads_conf" :
* null,
