when i open 6 miner on 32gb machine memory usage at start 16gb and keeps rising and later fills up all memory. stagger size is 1024. total capacity is 6 tb.


how can i configure windows machine or plots to use less memory?

The actual mining does not consume much memory. Plotting yes.
from the command "run_generate.bat 987654567890987612 0 80000 8000 7" that you are using to start plotting, 8000 represents the stagger size. The number of nonces to generate in a stack (stagger). And one nonce has 256 Kb of space/memory consumed/used
So, if you lower that you will lower the amount of memory needed to plot.

Is this running ok? what do those errors mean

You need to run the wallet in order to solo mine. Also, you will need to copy your passfrase you got when creating the account to passphrases.txt and run run_dump_address.bat.
It should dump your address and passfrase to address.txt

Let me know if its working metter


those seem to be the old addresses i generated when learning, the most current one im using is mining right?

 i have the wallet running and logged in with the same passphrase thats in the .txt file
 the generate bat wrote into the passphrase file found address "passphrase" -> 140628xxxxxxxx

but it still says error reading file 140628xxxxx then it says new best 140628196xxxx:9729




Ok, go to your wallet. Click on more info on Balance thingy (green blob). You should see the ID there. Is it the same with the one in your plot file?

yes inside the wallet the number is identical to the number on the top of my generate nonce bat and is identical to what you see in the miner cmd picture. its disconcerting seeing it say that there is a error reading the file with the same number (the one in my wallet and my plot file) .. as you see in the picture in red circle.. am i ok?

No, sorry. I read between the lines. Its working now.
The error about not being able to read the file is ok. If you are generating that plot at the same time you will see that message every time a new block is found.
Also, that message is shown if you stop the plotting before it ends. But it still reads the file, you should be fine

My bad

wonderful! now im feeling confident Smiley  so theoretically could i map drives on my network and generate plots on them too and utilize my network and other computers that stay powered on in my same lan?

you've been so much help i dont have any burst yet, but i would love to tip you, do you have a doge address?

DSdAH4YMmQeQypxxQd3HgN3tToX27ch5eM is my Doge.
So, in theory you could use the drives on lan. But, when you plot files the process is as follows. The data is generated in RAM, and when the set stagger size is reached it is then dumped to disk.
For example. I am plotting files with a stagger of 40000 (thats 10 Gb of RAM used). So, every 40000 nonces, the plotter dumps 10 Gb of data to disk.
The problem is that unless you have gigabit LAN, plotting on mapped drives will be slow

so it would most likely be wise to mine in the v2 pool untill im running a good size plot for solo mining... the pocminer pool v1 i already added the IP in the bat file, can i just merge the pocminer folder with the original miner files and run the bat for it to work?

it looks like most of the files are identical can they overwrite each other with the exception of my passphrases witch should be what was generated into my solo one?

You only need to change the IP address at the end of the command for it to work, plus copying the address. txt, passphrases.txt
And for solo mining, from what dudes say, you would need at least 2 Tb to actually find something. And considering the page on where this was posted I would say right now you will find a block in over 4 days.

I'm trying to mine from the pool and all i'm getting as an output is this:

I think the last "/" needs to be removed after :8121

duh

works now, thanks!

Hello

say I start mining on V2 pool and do these steps

4. Go to http://localhost:8125/rewardassignment.html
5. At the bottom fill in your passphrase, and put BURST-8NZ9-X6AX-72BK-2KFM2 as recipient and submit. This will have a fee of 1

If I want to solo mine again later on, how do I remove that address as the recipient??
Do steps 4-5 again, but use your own address as recipient.

I somehow managed to fork myself yesterday so missed mining all night

noticed something was wrong when the block after mine hadn't been found for over 6 hours

how is something like this even possible?


edit: increased size so maybe someone will see and if something needs to be done we can fix it before we have forks all over the place.

This was probably because the clock on your computer was wrong. It's best to make sure your OS has its time synced with the internet to make sure it stays accurate.
Could also be if he was using an old client. 1.0.2 rejects the correct chain since about 2 days ago.

I have updated the client. Will check if the clock is running as it should

plz link the pool v2 post on first post..

I had a question. When i mine in the pool V2 and i plot files at the moment, is it possible to mine at these files?
I get no valid shares and shares the are successfully transferd to the pool.

So i'm ban from pool? Help me...i'm confused 😩

If you just started plotting with the new ID for pool v2, you need to let it run longer. After 2-300 Gb of plots you will start seeing shares at a smaller interval

Thanks :-).
I hat the same id for all of my plots, is that right?

The v1 pool used a different ID. Pool v2 uses the same ID as the wallet.
Which one are you using?


I use the wallet id. And my plots are from 0->x x+1->y ...could One miner Scan more plotfiles or is it right one miner for echt hdd?

One miner for each HDD. Or you can try and RAID 0 some drives...
How many nonces do you have?
