When I try the latest version on an AMD Epyc (basically four Ryzen dice on a package) I get the following error:

Thread 30 successfully bound to CPU 30
Allocated 2MB Cached Large Page Scratchpad Buffer for CPU 30 of NUMA node 3 at: 0000021b3c200000
Starting CPU Mining thread 31, affinity: CPU 31
Thread 31 successfully bound to CPU 31
GetNumaProcessorNode failed for cpu 32, error code: 87
Retrying with no NUMA

Connecting to mining pool support.ipbc.io:17777 ...
Devfee is 1.5%

That's strange because I only defined threads for the CPUs 0 to 31 in the config file.  Huh Why does the miner try to access a CPU (core) 32, which is not present? Apart from that the miner starts mining and has better hashrate than XMR-stak with Bittube: 5200 H/s vs 4900 H/s.  Cheesy
In wikipedia no info about L1/L2 cache on Epyc. Only L3. Does L1/L2 cache exists on it or not? Just interesting...

P.S. 2Mb L3 cache per thread allready too low... AMD can add more L3 cache on Epyc... Especcially if L1/L2 cache is absent...
