@Epsylon3 - Do you know of a .bat file setting to get the proper hash rate to show up on a pool? I should get around 18 mh/s but my specs constantly show 7-12 mh/s. Is there something I should do different?

I currently use:

ccminer-x64 -a lyra2Z -o stratum+tcp://us-east.zcoin.miningpoolhub.com:20581 -u ****** -p ****** --show-diff
pause

Thanks - pokeytex

You've touched on a pet peeve of mine, please excuse the following rant.

Mining performance is measured by hash rate. The miner measures the hash rate of all scans. The pool measures
the hash rate of submitted shares. The problem is not 100% of the scans result in a submitted share. There are therefore
time gaps that reducethe effective hash rate. The miner needs to factor the failed scans to get an accurate effective
hash rate.

Latency is also a source of error. The pool measure the time from when it sent the work until the share was received.
The miner measures the time when it started hashing until it found the solution. It does not include processing or
network transmission.

There is also the issue of averaging. Most pools use a 5 minute average hash rate. If share submissions are regular the
displayed hash rate should be consistent but if shares are submitted infrequently the displayed hash rate can vary
wildly from zero to 2 or 3 times the actual hash rate depending on how many shares were submitted in the window.

to be short, cuda 6.5 is an older compiler, but still have the best execution performance for me... these 2 compilers give different speeds regarding the algo you mine..

else yea quark is broken, and not really motivated to fix it, because there are asic with a 40x better efficiency now...

thanks

you need to ask that to the pool, nothing special in the miner for that

i tried, not without losing a lot of performance on the others

I see, too bad then

Would it be possible to fix lbry with cuda 6.5 or not possible ?

hello everyone.

i downloaded ccminer-2.0-rc2-cuda-6.5 and ccminer-2.0-rc2-cuda-8.0 and i can't see any differences between the two.

of course i just started mining a couple of months ago so i only have 3 small cards.

can anyone tell me what the differences are so i can mark the files accordingly?

thanks

ccminer 2.0 - When I try to solo mine Quark algo the program quits with an error 'quark_blake512_cpu_setBlock_80_sp' at line 577 : an illegal memory access was encountered.

ccminer-x64 -s 1 -a quark -o http://127.0.0.1:44555 -u user -p password

I often encountered this when i set up overclock too high, or the overclock is wrong (like +core -mem when i need + core + mem)

shat could use a buff the escavator version is way faster, getting 550 and 670, but the nicehash version can not solo mine which is not ideal for me...

Epsylon does the 2% on yiimp cover your pool fees? Also consider adding the ability for someone to add additional % as a 'donation' via password field. Like -p d=1 for 1% or d=1.5 for 1.5% additional.

I just got around to testing 2.0 and I love the extra algos.

One thing I noticed that Bastion's GPU usage is lowish (~90) but when I up the intensity the hashrate keeps decreasing over time and the GPU usage fluctuates:

Not much of an issue, just never encountered anything like it.

Anyway, just sent you 0.1 as a thank you (9a1adf93682ee0e25b2a78b9d850bb6acebf9b770ce0ccb868a686a00ad05f84).

This happens in general when the intensity is too high (or your CPU is overworked IE at 100%).

Ohh... Epsylon i am studying on a programmer and working with C++. And i know how it to understand another code and implement it your project.
But your project very progressive and important and you and other developers making it better,
My help and thankfulness is only mining to your pool with all my rigs. Good luck!

not in this release... i do care about stability and compatibility and ive a real pain to import some of its work (or to understand/read it sometimes)... Its not so simple, not a a simple copy paste to do..

Example: quarkcoin and jackpot are currently broken (on all cards, cuda versions and os) and lock my final release... but the code of the buggy part was not changed :p

I'm sure you dont care at all about that and only want the fastest on your card... but you are not alone

Hello Epsylon!
I am respest you great job with ccminer and i want it to become better and better...
I am looking for opensourced alexis78 miner and tested it with all alogs.
For example it have 5% more speed at Lbry, 15% boost with Lyra2Rev2, 50% with sibcoin, skein - but it's not stable and have memory and CPU validation issues(except lbry)
How about adding this optimized kernel to your release? I think it will be good.
