Yes, I've seen bogus fluctuations of 1%, but the 4.25% for #pragma unroll 1 on the 8th "for i" is repeatable.
939kh is the baseline, I did #pragma unroll 1 in all "for" loops. I only gained with the 4th and 8th, but interestingly when doing them both I went <939. So I kept the 8th #pragma unroll 1 which is the fastest of all.
1: 939
2: 896
3: 921
4: 947!
5: 880
6: 877
7: 895
8: 979!
9: 879
10: 939
11: 939
12: 877
13: 938
14: 888
15: 892
I had previously tried #pragma unroll but didn't find any speed. I also hardcoded easily computed values in simd.cl instead of having then been computed, and still didn't get any speedup.

2. Can somebody with a 79xx / R9 test their hashrate if they use a #pragma unroll 1 before the fourth and eighth "for i" loops for the dark kernel? (seperate tests). For 5830 I get small speed gains by disabling loop unrolling. Instructions here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.6089358
My 290(X)s don't like this /un/optimization.
sometimes small hashrate gains are just bogus: I had proof that recompiling the exact same .cl file can yield a small performance gain or loose.

same problem even with --difficulty-multiplier 0.0039062500, share is above target
Did you try 1 and 256?same problem even with --difficulty-multiplier 0.0039062500, share is above target
yeah, both give me the same thing, also isn't 1 the default setting?

1. Suppose I want to mine x11 only if diff is <500 because 600-700-800 is not profitable for my setup, is there something in the code that I can tweak with an if-then-else to do it? (ideally it could be integrated into sgminer?)

-k groestlcoin give me reject on supernova pool
on myrgroestl or on groestl ? :-)
I've developed both stratum's with sgminer .. so it should work if you use the correct kernel for the correct pool.
Myriad-Groestl is different from Groestl
(Myr-Groestl is Groestl->Sha while Groestl is only Groestl)

running latest SPH-SGMINER .98 version for dark coin & getting no monitor.
rebuild so many times with updated ADL SDL .h files.
290 & 290X GPUs
when using sgminer 4.1.0 (in scrypt), no issues with hardware monitoring, temp, fan.
rebuild so many times with updated ADL SDL .h files.
290 & 290X GPUs
when using sgminer 4.1.0 (in scrypt), no issues with hardware monitoring, temp, fan.
did you run:
autoreconf -fvi
./configure CFLAGS="-O2 whatever you depend on"
make
??
I also Ran test cmd
aticonfig --adapter=1 --od-getclocks && aticonfig --adapter=1 --od-gettemperature
This confirms hardware is working.
Used this
./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-opencl --disable-adl
make
make install
Also tried...
./autogen.sh
./configure CFLAGS="-O3" --enable-opencl --enable-adl
make
make install
Not CFLAGS="-O3 ...."
CFLAGS="-O2 ..." !!!!
Pls try exactly this, without anything more or less.
This all is only working if you copied the ADL-Header files from your ADL-Download into sgminer/ADL_SDK (Build-Directory).
then in your build-directory run:
autoreconf -fvi
./configure CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall -march=native"
make
that's it.
Tried
autoreconf -fvi
./configure CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall -march=native"
make

when i start the miner with the config for darkcoin for example(or any other algo), it give me the typical "the application has stopped working"
what is your config we need more info to helpthe one in the op
Since XPM has 3 miners out now, is it a possible to merge XPM into this miner?
Give me source code of their kernels and I'll see what can be done...there is also this to add if you want
https://github.com/chrisfranko/aiden
This is just VTC with a fixed nfactor of 6, it is already mineable with the zuikkis kernel .. just set --nfactor 6
Its probably not really worth the hassle adding it in...

somehow ./configure does not like both of my systems. on one rig it complains about missing path (but it is set) and on the other (where i m running nan-miner and cgminer) it is telling something like "no open CL"
is anyone able to give me an advice?
