Also consider fact, that our system performs check on existing miners every 10 minutes. The stats on page may change and you still work on old algo. This is to prevent too often switches, which reduce miners performance.

We are still waiting from sgminer devs to increase pool check interval for multialgo configs from 30 seconds up to 10 minutes, because now, your miner will switch in 30 seconds if top priority algorithm appears alive instead after several minutes as it was meant to be.
The point is more than one multialgo ports are open in the same moment. Is it ok?

I get 5mh/s on x11 and 150mh/s on nist5 per card on average although I can get more like 190mh/s if I can keep my cards cool enough
150mh@nist5 per card? Unbelievable Smiley

niat5 150mh?Huh? per card what is card model??

ASIC proof my ass.  Grin
hehe i was mistaken got keccak hash speed confused with nist5
sorry for the mistake
today hasn't been one of my best...

Well, here is another example

NH site now is showing this:


Due to my factors f0=0;f2=0;f3=145;f4=117;f5=0;f6=101;f7=455 my profit is:
X11    0.3781 * 0.145 = 0,0548245
X13    0.4412 * 0.117 = 0,0516204
X15    0.5472 * 0.101 = 0,0552672
Nist5  0.1345 * 0.455 = 0,0611975

So, Nist5 is the most profitable by NH stats and also by my factors. Good.
Ok, but what we see on the rigs? Here is the screen from one of the rigs, identical hw, identical confs:


Three ports are open!

Devs, it's a bug, isn't it?

P.S.
Part of config (I even deleted non-multialgo ports):
Code:
 "pools": [
  {
   "name": "NH x11 multi",
   "url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:4336",
   "user" : "***",
   "pass": "f0=0;f2=0;f3=145;f4=117;f5=0;f6=101;f7=455",
   "profile": "x11"
  },
  {
   "name": "NH x13 multi",
   "url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:4337",
   "user" : "***",

Ah sorry it was a different algos I was thinking of
You should get about 3 times the hashes of x11

Ya pretty sure it was. Will check when I get home. Nist5 hash will drop bad if you set the intensity too high
Start with 11 and work up. I think mine is 13 or 14

My miners runs off a USB flash drive, I have only 10% free, If I try to update the driver, I risk run out of flash space, happened before and had to reinstall everything Sad

the only option (unless someone can help with the bin files) is to install one of the miners from scratch on a hard drive, once everything is working, copy the bin files to the USB flash drive and get rid of the hard drive.

but it is a lot of work that I will really love to avoid if possible Smiley

I will upload my bin..7950@1040/1500 ~11mh/s..shortly

edit

https://mega.co.nz/#!LAdCXIra!KD_Dil8Dx8UQ0BrvpNWHP16hj_Sc6V1Yx1Ev9MYAaNg

Good luck  Wink

Thank you for taking the time!!, really!

something weird with your bin (I downloaded the 32 bit version (l4 because my miner produces l8 (64 bit bins)) and only with you bin i get this error:

error while loading shared libraries: libcurl.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

any idea what can cause this?

Tried to rename l4 to l8 and test it on the 64 bit version, same deal Sad

EDIT: created a symlink for the library libcurl.so.4 to the /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib and now the error is different: error while loading shared libraries: libcurl.so.4: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

it seems that you system is 32 bit, and bin are not swappable just like that Sad I am out of ideas

Make sure you use same factors and costs for all connections made. If these are not the same, then this is exactly what you can see - multiple stratums being alive and ready to serve work.
Please advise, where I'm wrong. f=Numbers are my Mhs:

@nicehashdev

Can you please make available the source for sgminer-5.0-pre-release-2014-06-25-win32, I am trying to track down a very specific bug that's been occurring the last few weeks since that release, which has caused a significant drop (up to -500Kh/s) in the x11 algorithm's performance.  https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer/issues/347

I've already gone over it with ystarnaud and we can confirm that it is a) not driver-related b) not .cl-file related c) copying the .bin file from the working 06-25 build into the latest 07-12 build actually yields worse performance d) rebooting is not an issue, as I can flip over any time back to the 06-25 build and replicate maximum hashrate versus not e) the 06-25 build allowed you to set gpu-engine, and it does still allow you to set gpu-engine even with 14.7RC drivers, which the devs think you currently cannot

Please please please make available this source for us to compare against.  It was the last known source prior to addition of x15 algorithm.

As hashrate providers, you want us to figure this out for you.

Hi all
Could someone maybe give my poor being a hand in getting the optimised Nist5 miner/kernel to work on SGminer5? I use PiMP, been trying to compile on of djm34's versions myself but failed miserably... I think it might be due to my abysmal Linux skills... Embarrassed

Anyone who could share the few command lines needed?
Many thanks in advance!
 Smiley

EDIT: It works in sph-sgminer_x11mod. However it would be very nice if I could use Nist5 in the multi-switching algo of SGminer5...

There's about 80 config files posted throughout this thread.  Please take the time to look, instead of post a "just do it for me already" post, which that basically was.

--kernel nist5 == --algorithm talkcoin-mod

Spent time trying to compile, but completely missed a) comparing the two files' sizes b) checking through some of the many working configs posted c) https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer/pull/272 d) https://github.com/sgminer-dev/sgminer/issues/268

...

Spent time to answer like a douchebag but completely missed a) what files? b) since when do configs tell you if a kernel is compiled into a miner without having to do it first? c) & d) that's not a walkthrough nor an explanation that are links to conversations about merging files and technical data.

Well done for being a douche and not answering any of the question. Next time, can you just refrain if you do not intend to help?

a) files nist5.cl & talkcoin-mod.cl
b) most every config have people listing "nist5" pools while using "talkcoin-mod" as the algorithm [2+2=4]
c) exact date at which lasybear merged the nist5 algorithm, named "talkcoin-mod" into sgminer, from sph_sgminer (lasybear's miner); that's the optimized nist5 kernel, because that's the exact same human being that made it for his own miner, and then was kind enough to push it over into this sgminer multi-algo version, can't get a more direct source than that
d) exact date at which I proposed we include the nist5 algorithm, which lasybear pushed over as a response, in part c)

So it appears to be, douchebag or not, that I'm one of the reasons we have this algo in the multi-algo sgminer, but whatever dude, interpret all of our help here in a different light if you need to, seeing as we've been participating actively both in this sgminer and lasybear's since the beginning https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.7049650

You said it yourself, you wanted a walkthrough.  Walk through 54 pages of posts, just as we have, and you'll be up and running in no time, just like we are.  If you want somebody else to do it for you, just state that, and offer a bounty to pay.  Deeming anybody a douchebag may make you feel better, but it won't get you up and running any faster.  Take the time to look through peoples' problems and solutions here, since many problems are presented, and many solutions have been offered and accepted that have fixed a myriad of problems, across different card architectures, different OS, different driver versions, and different pools.  Your post was pretty non-specific and just said "how do i hash, i was using lasybear's now i want to use this."  Without specifics, OS, driver version, card type & specs, what could you possibly expect us to be able to provide you, without knowing what your specific situation is?  Since you know your situation, and we don't, there's 54 pages of possible solutions here, which seems to about a hundred others to be more than helpful for setting up.

There's config files for nearly every card-type with different specs if you need it, complete with recommended intensities.

There's multiple posts listing near-exactly what hashrates you can expect with CCC 13.x-14.4, and also 14.6 beta and later.

There's a ton of people who split their configs into two files, using a profiles.conf and a shortened sgminer.conf, with examples.

There's a few people who use CGWatcher, and there are a few valid config files which satisfy CGWatcher.

There's plenty of help here.

MultiAlgo ports are not sharp.

In the same moment a few multialgo ports were open (4337, 4339 on the picture).
But the table on the site was saying 4339 much more profitable (In the moment when I made screen).
How can I solve that?

Thank you!
