Default: blank

Reserves CPUs, blocking the emulator from using specific host CPU cores.  Cores are numbered starting at zero (0).  For example, a 4-core system has CPUs 0 – 3.

If blocking multiple CPUs, separate each CPU ID with a comma.  An entry of 0,1 on a 4-core system would prevent Avanti and FreeAXP from using CPU cores 0 and 1, effectively treating the machine as a 2-core system.

Note:This is a global setting that applies to all Avanti instances that are running on the host machine.  It takes its values from the first emulator that is started, so when running multiple Avanti instances it on a single host, it is best if the forbidden_cpus setting for each emulator is identical.
