Can bminer only support 10 1070 gpu rigs???  The miner quits when it registers the 11th gpu.  Im maxed out on virtual memory at 77000 mb, so not sure if thats the issue or if cpu can't handle it.

It seems that memory was the issue.  I added RAM and now can mine with 12 gpus.

15.4.0 still showing this error sometimes, like previous versions:

[WARN] [2019-03-30T13:51:07+02:00] Rejected share #0 ({"code":-5,"message":"Invalid nonce; is miner not compatible with NiceHash?"})

yes, and more - 13 * 1060/1070/P104, but on linux. mining on windows is pain...

with some pools like sparkpool bminer has about 5% reject share rate. but usually it is still more profitable than gminer. which has much higher cpu usage and in general can not be used with 10+ gpu rigs.

just a hint. use pool with static diff and compare miners by amount of shares for the same time period. this method still depends on luck, but anyway more accurate than comparing reported hashrate...

Sorry to say, but can't get it stable on any of my rigs, to much rejected shares, -fast function doesn't work either.

Tested on Simplemining, 1060, 1070, 1070ti and 1080ti rigs.

Sticking with Gminer for the moment.



--fast

several users have given me pretty positive feedbacks...
With rigs that have shity cpus or high end cpus?

I tried the new 15.4 with the --fast flag and it will not accept any shares on thegrinpool. I went back to version 15.3.1 and it will not work either now. Is there a way to disable the --fast flag once it has been activated or is simply removing it from the command line sufficient. I am on Windows 7 with a 1070

Just remove the --fast flag in your command line it will be diabled.
Have you tried combine intensity and --fast to see if it helps? since we have tried on our rig and it helps.


What is the default intensity? I need a base to start experimenting from. Thanks

Well, on simplemining 1070ti, power 140 watts, core+ 50 mem 0 ....i get crap ...
Same on the 1080ti on 165 watts
28 accepted and 26 rejected is not good..

very short test on Grin29, luxor.tech pool, win 10 driver 419.35, single gpu pc i5 with gtx1070, core +160, mem +600, power 65%:
v15.3.1: 4.45 G/s
v15.4.0: 4.80 G/s with --fast option => close to 5.0 G/s after a few hours...
I noticed only a slight improvement in speed with gtx1070:
4.41 G/s (v15.3.1) -->  4.45 G/s (v15.4.0)

my gtx1070 is around 5.0 G/s on 24 h, fidelity is 1.077 (was close to 1.0 on previous version)
my gtx1080ti went from 7.6 G/s to 8.0 G/s at 70% power load with v15.4.0 --fast (+120 core +600 mem), fidelity 0.993

working on it...

Small request from someone maintain an ethOS integration; https://github.com/cynixx3/third-party-miner-installer-for-ethos

Will you please add a version call to your miner.  E.G. "./bminer --version"
Thank you for your work on this miner, its great.

No?

I have already shared your post to another dev, not sure the exact date to add yet.

We're pleased to release Bminer 15.4.0. The release provides:
  * Improve performance of Cuckaroo29 / Aeternity.
  * Improve compatibility on Windows.
  * Add an experimental flag --fast to improve the performance for Cuckaroo29 / Aeternity, but it might lead to unstability on some systems.

Please see https://www.bminer.me/releases/ for more details.

Happy mining.

Does this improve performance of Grin?

Grin mining on P102 is about 7.78G/s now. without using --fast flag.

Is there an option to control the intensity for GPU? Also, what is the devfee when mining GRIN?

please try control cpu usage by -intensity first. please see https://bminer.me/faq/#how-to-adjust-the-cpu-usage-with-the-intensity-flag
grin devfee is 1%,  please see https://bminer.me/



I tried that, didn't help. Actually I've been having constant issues with any version of bminer ever since I tried to undervolt my GPU's using this method: https://www.reddit.com/r/gpumining/comments/9d5i5r/undervolting_nvidia_on_linux/

After the miner crashed I had to reinstall every card again in order to get Ubuntu to detect my GPU's... And now bminer doesn't run stable anymore, crashes randomly after 30-90 minutes of mining.
The fans of some cards start spinning really hard then, and the miner just freezes and I have to manually reboot it. Did I break my cards with undervolting? I thought that wouldn't be possible.
