Is anyone capable of integrating these kenels into SG-Miner v5? These are heavily optimized compared to the current qubit kernel.

https://github.com/MaxDZ8/M8M/tree/master/M8M/kernels

Also if anyone needs a pool for a coin let me know and I can open one up. Just trying to help contribute to the mining community.

Curious is yours working, the most recent build? I just keep getting socket closed even if I run it as Administrator (Failed Send, Socket Reset)

Working but only when connecting to a P2Pool. A bit unfortunate since I run my own pools.

Ah gotcha. I was also connecting to a P2Pool myself, and kept getting that error. I'll check for a later build then since I'm not sure why it's doing it

just by applying the groestl improvements (some of them have been made public months ago) you get a boost ;-)

Nice, I'll do that. I'm working my way down from the top of X15.

From what I have seen, some improvements can be made, but don't expect miracles like in some single algo coins.

Some? I've gotten over 20% out of it - tested on 7850, 7950, 270X, 280X, 290, and 290X. I'm not even that far in, and that was mostly low-hanging fruit.

well on groestl I've been 2.5x

I meant I got over 20% on X15 as a whole - not a single algorithm. Apples and moon rocks.

I'm using the Version of badman74 signature, sgminer 5.0 mod with an 14.6 RC3 Catalyst on 3 R9 290s.
Can anybody tell me why the Hashrates are "just" at about 15 and only go up sometimes to about 19-20?

Can't explain that to me. I'm using the cards to provide NIST5 hashs for Nicehash.

Here is my config:

Any pan to support CryptoNote coins: CryptoNight algo (XMR)

I am also wondering this.

Code is very similar to sph ported... can you highlight some interesting differences?

if you are talking to me... try making a diff and you'll se that, apart from the constant table (which is taken from the groestl drafts), very few lines are equal.
seriously, if I was to find, remember and explain all the changes, it'd take days.

Oh, I've been looking for the SGMiner thread - finally found it. Anyway, is there a way to set the algorithm and then the name of a custom kernel? That would be great - currently, to test mine, I have to swap it out for the stock one. 20% to 25% faster so far on the X algos, though, so not bad.

End of the optimized kernel experiment! :-)
Everybody pushed for an opensource release and nobody made an offer.
I'm happy that it ended like this as I strongly belive in opensource.

can someone please explain the advantages when using windows 7 64bit of compiling my own miner compared to using a .exe file that has already been compiled
cheers
