Claymore would probably do much better for 2 reasons:
a. it autodetects the amount of cache and amount of necessary threads
try allocating 1 thread per each 2mb of L2 cache you have
b. it supports memory locking mechanism that speeds up memory transfers
cpuminer is good in many things, but cryptonight is not one of them )
Aye, after writing this I tried setting "-t 8" as my CPU has 16MB of L3 cache, but there was no real change (if anything, it might have been a little slower!?). Also should have mentioned I always run miners as administrator just in case large memory pages can be used, but, apparently this is not the case here. Ah well, I'll keep my eye on this project anyway because I like rooting for the underdogs.
There's definitely a problem at your end. I get 280 H/s on a i7-6700K with 8 MB L3 cache and 4 threads. Check your CPU load to
make sure all cores are working. You may have to set a custom cpu-affinity. I don't have a Ryzen so I don't have any personal
experience but you could browse back in this thread. There have been discussions about this gfrom real Ryzen owners.
But as someone else pointed out I'm falling behind with cryptonight for a couple if reasons. There is a lot of competition for
cryptonight and I don't feel like enterring that race. One reason I haven't implemented large pages yet is the need to be admin
to use it on Windows.
