Not using all threads? #103

Hi, i switched the monitor on, and i saw that one of the treads (the first one marked with arrow was not active, saw this couple of times, but i wonder why. Could it be that i have not defined Affinity and it spiked on the other two threads?(the last two, im using only 10/12 as I saw the best results with this in the long run) CPU

Same question as #100 Miner automatically disables threads if it is beneficial to the hashrate. You disabling 2 threads manually lose like 15% of normal performance from just that.

Aha :) i have to test it more, as i'm also mining with my GPU switched on hardware scheduler, and saw lower ETH with 12/12 and lower GR
