[Bug] Node fails to start on Windows 10 with 64 cores (with workaround)

[fizpawiz]

What happened?

I have a Threadripper 3970x with 64 cores. On 2.2.1, I was farming fine. On 2.3.0 the farmer will no longer start.

Per discussion on Keybase, I tried setting full_node/reserved_cores to 10 (from default of zero) in the config.yaml, and it resolved the issue.

Version

2.3.0

What platform are you using?

Windows

What ui mode are you using?

GUI

Fix being added back in https://github.com/Chia-Network/chia-blockchain/pull/17958. Was incorrectly removed in https://github.com/Chia-Network/chia-blockchain/pull/17409 first released in 2.3.0rc1. This is specific to Windows and CPUs with more than 61 cores.

I have the same problem, I'll have to roll back to 2.2.1

While this does need to be fixed, do note the small configuration adjustment that can work around this.

setting full_node/reserved_cores to 10
