Edit: I took another look at the code changes and there should be no difference if cpu groups
is not enabled. A change in behaviour means it's running different code. But if it was running
the new code the "Binding thread" message would have included the group. I don't know what's
going on.

You can still have cpu groups with fewer than 64 cpus.
 

If I had groups enabled, I would have a combo box like the one in this page. As I don't have it, I suppose I definitely don't have them enabled.
Thanks for analyzing this anyway. I'll still stick with setting affinity externally and ignore the warning.

The best advice for complex system architectures is probably to run seperate instances of the miner
for differnt CPU groups, NUMAs, whatever other scaling and partitioning features Windows has.
