Still only 25% lol

see prinscreen, any settings that are wrong?

It takes time, my 2TB disk plotted 3-4 days as far as i remember. And yes threads and cores are related - each 1 physical core got 2 threads, so it's always threads=cores*2.

I am trying the GPU plotter right now. Its already 3 times faster. but still it says it would take 5 days to plot a 5Tb. And then after that i still need to optimize the plots, so i dont know how long this optimizing will take..?

If i check IMINEBLOCKS on youtube, he doing 25.000 nonces per minute. I am doing with my GPU only 2500 but its already lots faster then my CPU

I closed java that was running on the background. I am on 20% now of the 5TB.

but still i would like to discuss some things about plotting. The cores and threads, are they related to eachother. can you take 1 core and 4 threads or is this a bad idea? Is is better to have 2 core and 4 treads, or 4 cores and 8 treads, or 8 cores and 16 threads.

I would be really helpfull if somebody want to send me a pm with his skype so we can have a small skype session. Offcourse i am willing to give you a tip in btc, eth, burst, ltc, ripple, or ever other coin :-)

I gonna receive 8 x 5TB this week, so i really wanne know if i doing the best performance now to plot. maybe somebody have some tips to speed up the process or tell me what i am doing wrong... I also have teamvieuwer, so its easy to share my screen with you if you want.

Not that its not working now, but i am bit a pefectionist, so i really wanne know everything in detail, i am a bit a computer nerd hah :-)

thanks in advance community!

If you're using the AIO GUI Wallet that has the plotter and miner built in, it uses xplotter by default - so just tell it what drive, and it'll optimally plot it.

Thats really great :-)
One more question. you can choose how many manually set your CPU cores and the Threads. Cpu i totally understand, but what about the treads? i see the more threads i choose the higher my ram usage is... so the more threats the faster it will make the plots or the bigger or? And if you choose for more threads, does it affect the mining speed when i start mining plots created with more threads?

Thanks in advance.

Hyperthreaded CPU's have two threads per physical CPU core. I haven't used the AIO for a while, but expect it allows you to set only threads. The more threads, the faster it mines. More RAM is not required for more threads, but I believe the AIO assigns a default amount of RAM per thread - you can override that though.

As test i am starting to do a 500gb partitoin on a 1TB. Just a test. then i gonna do both my 5TB's.
Now i just see my 1TB is format as NTFS, is this ok? Or should it be better FAT32 or does it not make any difference?

thanks

for XPlotter it MUST be NTFS - FAT32 or exFAT will not work.

Ok good to know.
The image i wanted to show you is here... I first started the gui wallet, then i see its already using a lot of memory on java too. I am wondering, now the doss comands started, can i close the burst gui wallet and java? For plotting i dont know why this should still be running on my computer. Or am i wrong?

That's a really high value for RAM that Xplotter is using. AFAIK without being over-ridden, it'll never be higher than 50% of total system RAM, your's is over 80%. Xplotter can be stopped and restarted to resume the current plot, but you'll need to manually do it - which will involve editing a batch file and manually launching it. If you want to restart let me know and I can give you the steps, or do a TV session and set it up for you.

Ok, well i am testing plotting on a 500gb and its already done for 80% so i will leave it like that for now.
So when i do my 5TB, i probably choose less "threats" via the plotter in the gui wallet? Like 6 instead of 8? But then it will take longer? In fact i have no problem with the fact it using so much ram. I am not doing anything else on that computer. I was just wondering if i even have more ram space for xplotter i i shut down the gui wallet and java after starting the plotting :-)

As I said, I've not used a recent version of the AIO, but you should be able to set ram and threads - set threads to your system total - 1, and RAM to half of what you have

Only able to set threads cpu cores thats it.
I been mining with my 500gb plot as test for 10 hours now (see printscreen)
Also a 5TB hdd is plotting since 10 years ago. Only 3% is done by now ... wow this takes sooo long.

Can anybody see on the printscreen if i got any burstcoin with mining? i always see no deadlines. but this is probably because i only using 500gb right now?

IMINEBLOCKS on youtube says it should take around 24h to plot a 5 TB drive. But when i check the stats its only for 3 or 4% done like i said... and this in 8hours time. So i think there is something wrong?

Anybody willing to do skype session with me?
