# bit corresponding to the first logical CPU and the highest order bit
# corresponding to the last logical CPU. Not all CPUs may exist on a
# given system but a mask may specify more CPUs than are present.
#
# For example:
# 0x00000001 is processor #0,
# 0x00000003 is processors #0 and #1,
# 0xFFFFFFFF is all processors (#0 through #31).
#
# This is desirable for Synapse processes (especially workers), which are
# inherently single-threaded due to the GIL and can suffer a 30-40% slowdown
# due to cache blow-out and thread context switching if the scheduler happens
# to schedule the underlying threads across different cores.
