Topic: [ANN][BURST] Burst | Efficient HDD Mining | New 1.2.3 Fork block 92000 - page 1082. (Read 2170889 times)

there is a place where i can see the diff of this, some general stats?

Burst has the most volume on c-cex! 

Did as suggested and now get the below error.

Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

Thanks for your help

Yup, that's why you get errors in reading the files, but they're harmless, just noting that the plot file isn't complete.

Yeah, change -Xms1000m to -Xms4000m to allocate more memory.

Same thing happened to me and I should of had enough memory, wasn't sure if it was a java 32bit/64bit thing or what.  Had to settle with memory at 1048 I believe.  To be fair with everything running I have around 60+  ram usuage but should of easily been able to reserve 2gb. 

Has anyone encountered the above?

Nevermind. In my haste to test it I forgot I was in the downloads folder and had no plot file there...

Tested on 3 different computers.

Not sure if this is the one but there is #burstcoin on the irc.freenode network.

If that is not it please lets create one

When i execute with these settings i get the below error.

You my friend, are a legend. I get it now! Only issue i can see is if you stopped the plotting like me the file name will not be correct as it presumes it plotted to the height you specified.

In the standard naming convention for plotfiles, you have:
address_startingNonce_noncesInFile_noncesPerRound
In the above, add the startingNonce to the noncesInFile (both from your most recent plot) to get the next startingNonce for your next plot.

So for example, if your most recent (aka highest startingNonce) file looked like this:
address_4095500_4095500_8191
Then your next plot should be
address_8191000_4095500_8191
Where 4095500 controls the size of that file (in this case, 1TB) and 8191 controls the amount of RAM used in generation (2GB with the linux plotter), and where 'address' is representative of your actual numerical address (which is generated by run_dump).

I'm not good at cross-platform programming. But I managed to compile. Unfortunately the rate hasn't increased. Had to replace library shabal.s to a different version. Maybe because of this.

Thanks!! How do i find the the current plot number?

Is there no IRC chan for Burst? You need one!

If you stop a plot before it finishes, there's not really a way to 'resume' (other than calculating the ending nonce, and then merging the files). However, it doesn't matter, you can just start generating the next plot as you would if the previous plot finished correctly. The only issue is overlapping plots, but gaps mean nothing, all that matters is the total number of nonces.

You cant. Just start with a nonce above your previous range and keep the partial files.

Thanks!! it has 8 threads so i will drop it down.

Do you know how to restart plotting if you stop it?

Nope, a 1k block deadline could only mine a block that has waited a bit over 16 minutes since the last one.

I know the V2 pool has a target deadline of 75K, but what deadline is actually feasible to mine a block these days?

Could a 75K ever really get it?  Or even a 10K?
