Cannot use more than 32 threads on AMD Threadripper

It could be Node.js bugs, I'm rewriting the miner with totally C++, next version will be fine. Now you could open 2 or 3 miner, each less than 32 threads.

Is there a newer version coming for skypool-nimiq-v1.3.0-linux-x64-AMD-ryzen that will support Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX 32 cores 64 threads?

@cgeilow Try v1.3.1 linux version

I tried every version of Linux and none will run more than 32 threads. If I try more threads the hash rate drops to less than 20K. The same thing happens if I try to run multiple instances of Ubuntu simultaneously.

I think the hashrate dropping because of CPU L3 cache for per core. threads shouldn't more than physical core

Any news on this issue? There is still no C++ implementation
