Btw. just tried the new 1.2 standalone miner to mine on my ubuntu server:

Code:
...
[2015-12-21 11:26:11] CPU #0: 5.40 H/s
[2015-12-21 11:26:11] CPU #1: 4.00 H/s

[2015-12-21 11:26:19] CPU #6: 3.51 H/s
[2015-12-21 11:26:19] CPU #0: 4.29 H/s
[2015-12-21 11:26:24] CPU #1: 4.04 H/s
[2015-12-21 11:26:24] CPU #6: 3.79 H/s
...

That's on a i7 4770K. Something's not right here I guess Tongue I's using around 12% of my CPU with 7 cores.

Ouch, we are speaking about a ram eater, it is possible then to mine it in a core2duo with 4gb of ram or it is a waste?

Dev have you think about  to add the coin to some other pool?

thanks

Some people seem to be having trouble with the Windows CPUMiner, but on Linux cpuminer is using less than 50MB of RAM to mine on 8 hyperthreaded cores.

even on ubuntu the standalone miner gives me only 90-100 H/s per thread on my box, while setgenerate gives a little over 300 H/s per thread. I tried building the miner with VS2013 but the libs are missing.

What CPU do you have? In an ubuntu VM I'm having no trouble mining at 700kH/s+ on 5 of my 6 5820k cores, and I spun up an EC2 instance a bit ago, which has no problem hitting ~1000 kH/s per (physical) core. I've noticed that, on machines with very high core counts, performance seems to take a hit below what I'd expect (AKA a c4.2xlarge, which has 4 cores/8 threads, actually runs FASTER than a c4.8xlarge when all cores are committed, although a c4.8xlarge runs at the same speed as a c4.2xlarge when only a fraction of the cores are wired). Also, the Argon2d hashing algorithm is, according to the whitepaper, designed to take advantage of modern x86-platform features, so perhaps you have a very old processor where these optimizations aren't available?

If you're running it in a VM, try some CPU benchmarks to make sure your virtualization isn't giving your CPU power a haircut.

It's a vserver:

model name      : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           E5520  @ 2.27GHz

As I said, using the wallets build in mining it's around 3 times faster.

The CPU-Miner needs a patch for pooled mining, i've included it here:
https://github.com/ocminer/cpuminer-multi-1

thanks, oc

Thanks ocminer.
New release of cpuminer now is on github.
https://github.com/Encel-US/cpuminer-multi
windows x64 binary https://github.com/Encel-US/cpuminer-multi/releases/tag/cpumine-v.1.2

So, Welcome to first Argon2 pool
https://ar2.suprnova.cc


Can you please add the libs to git so we can build it using VS2013?

why the CPU is loaded only 50-70%?

And created a pull request and the Dev's branch so he can merge that as soon as he's back online.

Hashrate calculation needs to be fixed on the pool probably because this algo is so ultraslow.. We'll see when some hash is in the pool.
While Blocks are being found without problems, consider the pool beta for now though.

thanks, oc

What can coz new miner works as bad as the old one.?
FX-8350 8-core 240 H/s


OS? Check your power profile.
Power profile is ok. Checked on win 8 and win vista.

Im sorry, I should have specified. I cant build it on windows.  Linux build works, but i only have Linux on my low power laptop :/

hello there, i would give anyone 500 creditbit coin for helping me setup miner for argon2 to supernova pool, use the teamviewer. any help please? i got 1 R280x. and BTW were there any rental rig could be use for this coin?

There's no GPU miner at the moment, but you can use the CPU miner floating around Smiley
could you help with cpu miner, been mining using wallet, but now no block to found

What OS are you on?

amd fx 4300 quad-core 3.8 g  . ram 4.00gb. 64bit . just send pm

yea i cant get it to build ether.



What error(s) are you getting?

Code:
sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install -y git curl gedit autoconf automake build-essential libtool libcurl4-openssl-dev libncurses5-dev pkg-config

git clone https://github.com/ocminer/cpuminer-multi-1
cd cpuminer-multi-1
./autogen.sh
./configure CFLAGS="-O3"
make
sudo make install [b]OPTIONAL, then you don't have to run with ./cpuminer since cpuminer will be located in something like /usr/local/bin/cpuminer[/b]

./cpuminer -a argon2 -o stratum+tcp://ar2.suprnova.cc:7095 -u username.worker -p password -t threads

Of course, you can change the above stratum+tcp://... to 127.0.0.1:5555 for local solomining if you have RPC set up correctly, and the username, password, and thread count need to be set.

As usual, I'd recommend putting it in a screen session so it doesn't die if you close your SSH window:
Code:
screen -S miner -d -m ./cpuminer -a argon2 -o stratum+tcp://ar2.suprnova.cc:7095 -u username.worker -p password -t threads

If the above doesn't work, install screen:
Code:
sudo apt-get install screen

This works fine on Ubuntu 14.04 fresh from an ISO.
