+ * Thread configuration for each thread. Make sure it matches the number above.
+ * low_power_mode - This mode will double the cache usage, and double the single thread performance. It will
+ * consume much less power (as less cores are working), but will max out at around 80-85% of
+ * the maximum performance.
+ *
+ * no_prefetch - Some sytems can gain up to extra 5% here, but sometimes it will have no difference or make
+ * things slower.
+ *
+ * affine_to_cpu - This can be either false (no affinity), or the CPU core number. Note that on hyperthreading
+ * systems it is better to assign threads to physical cores. On Windows this usually means selecting
+ * even or odd numbered cpu numbers. For Linux it will be usually the lower CPU numbers, so for a 4
+ * physical core CPU you should select cpu numbers 0-3.
+ *
+ * On the first run the miner will look at your system and suggest a basic configuration that will work,
+ * you can try to tweak it from there to get the best performance.
+ *
+ * A filled out configuration should look like this:
+ * "cpu_threads_conf" :
+ * [
+ * { "low_power_mode" : false, "no_prefetch" : true, "affine_to_cpu" : 0 },
+ * { "low_power_mode" : false, "no_prefetch" : true, "affine_to_cpu" : 1 },
+ * ],
