Second, HELP!

I've been trying to figure out how to use multiple pools in the json file, but I can't seem to find the option to make it happen, or the say to configure it.
Has that option been added in the first place to the miner? If so, how can I set it in my json file?
If not, will it be implemented in the near future?

Anyone having any thoughts on this part?
It would be nice if someone could figure this out for me.

Thanks!

rmm, these idle settings doesn't exists in my version... someone already asked about this feature and i heard there is a tool to do it...

I think with " "on-idle" : 30, "on-idle-low" : 30," - this will fine - when my cpu is not used, cpuminer start work and when I start some application and CPU is highter than 30%, cpuminer will "sleeping" with "cpu-priority" : 0, "cpu-affinity" : -1. With older wersion when I mining DarkCoin, this work great, but now I change pool for Bitcoins and another stufs. Now this options no work for me - CPU always is 100% bussy - cpuminer no read "on-idle" settings..

Windows 7 has this feature and 8.1 too. But i do not have Windows 10, but i think it should be there too. The "idle" setting is under the Triger tab when creating a new task, but in this case it is better not to use a batch but put all the comands under the Action tab, executable only into the "Program" field and all other options into the "Arguments" field. Do not forget to configure the "Start in" field where the miner is located (no spaces and no quotes). And under the Contitions tab there is another part of the "idle" settings. There you can customize when the job should start. I can share my config (screenshots) but not today, because that is on my work computer. Or mabye I can share exported job as XML if someone wants.

Hi again.

I again need help.

I use this .json file:
{
   "_comment1" : "Any long-format command line argument ",
   "_comment2" : "may be used in this JSON configuration file",

   "api-bind" : "127.0.0.1:4048",

   "url": "stratum+tcp://address:port",
   "user" : "user:worker",
   "pass" : "X",

   "algo" : "sha256d",
   "threads" : 0,
   "cpu-priority" : 0,
   "cpu-affinity" : -1,

   "on-idle" : 30,
   "on-idle-low" : 30,

   "background" : true,
   "quiet" : true
}

My idea: cpuminer will work when I am away from PC and when I use my pc, cpuminer will sleep.. BUT my CPUminer work all time to 100% from my CPU and I dont know where is my mystake.. Before time I use same configuration file to mine Dark coin with    "algo" : "x11",
   "threads" : 0,
   "cpu-priority" : 0,
   "cpu-affinity" : -1,

and all work great. Some weeks after this I no use CPUminer. When I change my .json file with new settings for new pool (for bitcoins), my miner work all time to max CPU.
Please help me to repair my settings. I want to use all time my cpuminer without stop, but when I use my pc, I want to set "sleep" mode to this program.

I use version from May 16th. 2015 for x64 windows (cpuminer-gw64)

thanks

I do not know how it is on Linux, but on windows you can configure starting/stopping the cpu miner in Scheduled Tasks. I also have configured it. I have 8 cores and when I lock windows, all cores are hashing and after ulock only 4 cores are hashing. You can also configure starting the miner when computer is idle (locked or unlocked) and when you move mouse cursor or press any key the mirer ends. You can configure all these features in Scheduled Tasks or eventually combine it with batch files.

Hi there,
First of all, great app created to mine. It has a lots of nice feats.

test branch here : https://github.com/tpruvot/cpuminer-multi/tree/riecoin-test

which contains also m7m and velvet algos (all require the gmp/mpir lib) << no support on that Wink

yes I could use it, however I wanted to work with visual studio, since its easier for me, I don't know much about linux.

I don't need an optimized version just wanted to look at the code, see how it works, see if I could improve it etc.. for fun Grin

Thanks nonetheless

A recent post would suggest the CPU mining days are over. Could just be FUD.

I'll look into merging it with cpuminer-opt.

Edit: follow me here...

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.13542056

they were talking about primecoin wich is only gpu since more than a year ago, riecoin is still only cpu for now.

also the miner I posted before, from gatra, is not the most new or optimized but since it was a fork from cpuminer I thought it would be easier to add it to this miner, just like copy pasting Wink

the latest miner for riecoin is here https://github.com/dave-andersen/fastrie , one of the pool owners optimized this miner for the intel cpus but he have it closed source for now.

I can't do much if it's closed source.

What about the original? Why don't you use it?

Hello Epsylon3, do you think you could add the riecoin algo?

this is the official miner (cpuminer-rminerd) : https://github.com/gatra/cpuminer-rminerd

Thanks

Forgive me for barging in to Epsylon3's thread, but can you tell me more about his algo? What coins use it
and are they in any pools?

I might have a look at it.

Hi joblo, this algorithm is only used on riecoin, this is the official thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=446703.4380
its a good coin for cpu mining, and there are currently 2 pools, you can check them in the official thread.

Hi,
can someone help me how to configure this cpuminer-multi to use multiple pools? I mean in case when the first one will be down. If yes, could the second pool use different algo?
Thank you
Gee

I usually use a script for that., whether windows or linux. There are even some GUI managers that can be
a front end for profit switching and failover.

else yes, will do some binaries... but most were already published by cryptominingblog and by the Vanilla team
