Windows 32 bit solo/stratum pool mining minerRelease 1.0 Beta-Spexx
https://www.dropbox.com/s/dii8cvz7lp8xuey/XMGpoolminerWin32.rar?dl=0This miner should not be used on a Windows 64 bit environmentWhile it will certainly run reliably under Windows 64 bit the speed is only around 65 percent of the miner compiled for that environment.
The 64 bit version is available here:-
https://www.dropbox.com/s/hiadf8o5u7bsit7/XMGpoolminerWin64.rar?dl=0The miner has been tested on older Pentium and AMD processors running Windows XP. Please report your experiences with this miner here.
To estimate the hashrate you can expect to obtain from your processor, look it up in this list:-
https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.phpTake the figure in the column headed "Passmark CPU Mark" just to the right of the CPU name and
divide by 120.
This should give a figure very close to your actual hashrate in Kh/s.
If using the
64 bit version then the Passmark CPU Mark should be
divided by 100.
If your setup gives you significantly less hashrate than the estimated value, check that you have set the --threads parameter to equal the number of cores in your processor. Also check that the minerd process is using all your CPU cores by monitoring via Windows Task Manager. If you find that the CPU time used is much less than 100 percent and the CPU is spending a significant amount of time in Kernel mode, then I have a workaround for that.
