Thank you guys!
Very good result for my rig 6x 1070ti

Equihash algoritm:
Average rate - 3.38 KSol/s
Energy per card - Sol/w 4.20

to get 4 souls/watt on a 1070 ti, means you have the TPD about 58-60% lol you should post you're config cause I just dont see that type of hash rate with that low of TPD.

That is actually not true. I have 6 GTX 1070 Ti and get 4.12 sols/W average between the 6 cards and all of them are running at 70% TDP. The best one it is doing 4.23 sols/W. Have a look

No need to go that low but still I am surprise about the performance difference on the hashrate. I average 3107 maximun 3111 and he is doing 200 more sols average. Are you using Windows or Linux? and what driver version?

Interesting AB settings. I thought most were closer to this..
power limit 86
temp 72
core clock 133
mem clock 585

.. I tried your settings and output is basically the same... but..
67c 537 sol/s 295 i/s 3.43 s/w (on my end.. 1080's)

very buggy release. i am using hiveos. dstm 0.6.1.

1. gtx1080ti has hashrate around 200 sols
2. ping problem (already reported here before)

Same problem here... With gtx 1060, dstm 0.6.0 i get ~300 sol/s. Now with dstm 0.6.1 i get around 200 sol/s .
Whats wrong?
https://i.imgur.com/UKFqQvW.png

yes i can confirm that.

are those AMD machines ? i have the same effect on 2 other of these cheap AMD machines, but on the modern intel machine with gigabyte D3A H110 it has no issues and the 0.6.1 performs slightly better.

this is with 0.6 (and its even warm).

Code:

========== Sol/s: 2924.2 Sol/W: 4.06 Avg: 2914.7 I/s: 1560.8 Sh: 2.41 0.99 113

this is with 0.6.1 just started (so would get lower in a bit)

hwinfo: (its obviously one of my low ROI machines where i use an older downclocked energy save cpu, mb + mem in combination with a 1to4 pci extender. works flawlessly though. its 2x 1080ti 3x1070ti config. OS is SmOS.

as inquired the cpu usage of 0.6 and 0.6.1 related to above findings.
0.6.1 has higher peaks ie i see it peak to up to 50% cpu usage at least using "top".

0.6

I would have to agree. Both of my rugs dropped 500 sols after jumping onto DSTM 0.6.1. I rolled back to 0.6 and my hash rates jumped up where they should be. I only have one rig near me but it’s not by a tv so I’m not sure how I can get the logs if you need them.

New Version 0.6.1
- support configuration of 'temp-target', 'intensity', 'pool' via cmd-line parameters

DSTM, thanks for the new version. I haven't had any issues with latency on MiningPoolHub, ZPool or NiceHash using Windows 10. However, I do have a quick question regarding latency. Is 1.0 the default value? Based on my limited testing, I am assuming it is as any lower value reduces the hash rate, but I would like a quick confirmation of that. Thanks.

I guess you're talking about intensity not latency like you wrote.
Intensity is only used to reduce the GPU load - if you don't set the '--intensity' option the intensity code path isn't used and zm will run as fast as possible.

Sorry about my typo. Yes, I meant intensity and not latency in the second sentence. That’s what I get for not proof-reading. Thanks for clarifying how your miner uses intensity. Other miners, such as CCMiner, use a default intensity that is often less than the maximum and I wanted to make sure that was not the case with DSTM. Keep up the good work.

nice results... how did you do that? care to share your config? Thanks.

I am sorry but 4 post and results nobody is near them with the same cards on different systems. I think you should upload a pic otherwise I just think you are pretty much bluffing...

I have not seen anyone getting that high hashrate and sols/W with GTX 1070 Ti. That combination does not sound right to me

For people having performance issues on 0.6.1/linux.
Is there a significant CPU-load difference between 0.6 / 0.6.1 on your systems?

Hi DSTM,

I noticed quite a difference in CPU usage between 0.6.0 and 0.6.1 running on vanilla Debian 9.4 (Stretch).
Here it goes: https://imgur.com/a/lNtcqlC

I measured the CPU usages with top over a period of time (around 1 minute or so) and took the average.
The behaviour of 0.6.1 running on my miner is that the last GPU (GPU4) is running at 75% of its capacity.
This rig has 4 GTX 1070 and 1 GTX 1080. One of the 1070s is GPU4.
That's quite odd (considering the high CPU usage of kworker and some IRQs as well with 0.6.1).
GPU Overclock, memory clock, power limit have been kept identical in the two runs (0.6.0 vs 0.6.1).
The only actual difference is zm executable version.

Hope it helps. Meanwhile, I reverted to 0.6.0 that uses less CPU and provides a higher combined hashrate on my rig.

Thanks for your good work! Cheers!

Thx, that's very helpful.

For people who have performance issues and also have some time to test - pls pm me.

So i get a strange thing happening in 6.1. I have two 1080ti's on my comp and when i run my second card by itself the output shows only the first line of hash info and then stops displaying any info except for difficulty changes. The card is hashing and is reporting on the pool but the output display just shows the difficulty changes. If i run my first card by itself and if i run the two cards together they output fine just how they are suppose to.. Must be a little glitch with running dev 1 only i guess. Anyone else running into this? Great miner by the way.. https://imgur.com/a/BP5ulKB

Thx, fixed.

Looking good so far on Ubuntu Server 16.04. I am seeing the slight performance bump. Keep up the good work. Been running your miner since December and have NEVER had a crash. I only shut down to apply patches once a month and I'm back up and running within 10 minutes after that.

Seems to hash reasonably well ...

Will try out the Linux version shortly.

New Version 0.6.1
...
- improve performance on linux systems by ~2%

You apply 2 queue per GPU, right? Make please option for switch between old/new modes for selected card. For example - like "dev=0,1,2" for old mode and "dev=0,0,1,2,2" for new mode (card 0 and 2 - 2 thread/GPU, card 1 - 1 thread/GPU)

Also, with v6.1:
gtx750 - SM5.0 - same performance, +1..2 sols/sec
gtx950 - SM5.2 - yes, +2% faster
gtx1050ti - SM6.1 - 1-2% SLOWER Shocked

Rollback to v6.0 Sad

Thx for reporting performance measurements.

+1-2 Sol/s on an gtx750 are about +2%.

gtx1050ti / sm6.1: There is nothing special about sm6.1 in respect to this optimization. That's not what I'm getting.

Could you pls provide the log files of your tests?
A run of 5min (for 0.6/0.6.1) should be enough on a previously cooled down system.

Sorry, I was wrong. I retest again (some hours) and get next average values:

gtx750 67 -> 67
gtx950 153 -> 155 ~1.5%
gtx1050ti 191 -> 192
total 412 -> 415
