I tried jminer. It's 15 seconds to read my 25TB of plots on my GPU comparet to 42 seconds with Blago's CPU miner. The jminer, however, have the same bug in Windows which the Blago miner had some versions ago - it consumes the RAM (windows disk catching) and you can't use your PC for anything else (heavy reading from pagefile). This was fixed in the Blago's miner, so a fix is possible.
15 seconds is a normal time for 4TB drives, as long as your GPU is not @100% it makes no difference if you have 25TB or 200TB.
Guess you are running Win7, it is the only OS having theese disk caching problems, you could solve them by using Win8+.
jminer is running in JavaVM using java.nio (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/nio/package-summary.html) for file operations.

Sorry, but there will be no native Win7 special cases implemented by me, even if it would be possible (however) ...
From my point of view, this is a Win7 issue ... and not a bug in jminer.

 

Thank you for your answer. Is the software cache needed in this case at all? After all you are reading different data each block. As far as I understand Blago's answer it's setting a single flag for all Windows versions:


@luxe, it's possible, C <=> Java  (FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING)

From what CIYAM mentioned in the other thread, it sounds like a significant portion of the required code is already in place and will just need tweaking to ensure it's compatible with whatever Bitcoin does.  I'm not a coder myself, but I suspect there might be a tiny bit of waiting involved at first to see exactly how it's going to be implemented in core.  But the GUI part is certainly something that needs to be ready for when the time comes.
Currently working on a little lib, that makes it faster for me, writing burst wallet addons ...
e.g. i started writing a block-explorer ... screen: https://i.imgur.com/cNu2gwo.jpg
A GUI for making ACCT could use that ... but thats only the burstcoin part.
Maybe a standanlone application using (in this case) bitcoin+burstcoin wallets and providing a exchange-like GUI would be much more easy to use. (no switching between wallets) but thats surely something that takes a little more time.

Indeed CHEAP asset has been sold out, now it can go to the moon!

And INCOME asset is already going to the moon (27 BURST now)

I dont want to exxagerate at all, but looks like a bit of marketing was really needed. I`m still not sure if my advertising did this to BURST, but let's find out:

https://blockchain.info/address/17GPDdHiXthrwrLVmw7x9p3FdGzeQwWmcY


The marketing address is still open for donations and we can do another advertising round.

May i ask when next income dividends will payout?
Rumours about payout will increase the trading of said asset.  Wink

Hello All.

Blago's Miner Crashes on Win10 for me often. What is the best Win10 CPU miner? I am using my GPU for other mining..

Thanks
I can confirm JMiner is pretty stable on windows 10, used it for more then a month and never had a crash.

I was under the impression jminer was GPU?

jminer uses OpenCL (Open Computing Language) that allows writing programs for heterogeneous platforms that utilize CPUs or GPUs.
more info: http://www.jocl.org/

i never tested jminer with CPU, if you try it, feel free to give some feedback on https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12329106

I have a Macbook and tested it for my guide, i can confirm it runs smoothly on CPU
nice to hear that :-)

@Cobra89

It looks like you missed to change the Plot/Account number in jminer's properties file or like mentioned above the filepath.


numericAccountId=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

- daWallet

No, I had it  Sad

plotPaths=Z:/Burst/plots
poolMining=true
numericAccountId=17908512605713200237
poolServer=http://pool.burstcoin.de:8080
platformId=1
deviceId=0

your settings are fine, should work ... i send you a pm, we will solve that problem!

ok we found the problem, jminer uses the long datatype for addressing nonces ... the used startnonce was simply too big for that datattype.
in short ... current jminer version does not support nonce addresses bigger than 9223372036854775807 ...
so if you are mining more than ~2000 petabyte with one account you could get serious addressing issues :-)

Take a look at this address: BURST-QHCJ-9HB5-PTGC-5Q8J9

This account belongs to Burst Dev!!!

He still mining coins  Wink His pools stably continue the work!

How many of your cheap coins he purchased on the exchange we do not see  Wink

I think we are waiting for a very large pump (X1000) and great development of the coin  Roll Eyes

keep the momentum going. Hopefully we will get new developer soon. Going at least x100 is very possible if we get a committed developer

Leave no FUD unchallenged
Is Burst dying or what? The price has been droping and droping, it even got to the point where it is no good to trade... So what's the matter?

The exceptionally good news in this thread should help.  It probably won't be long before you can trade between BTC and Burst without using an exchange.  Now is definitely the time to buy while it's cheap.  This news should also attract some new investors.

Burst up 100% overnight, Qora up 40% - looks like this news got some attention ...

H.


Pretty sure there's more to come, too.  It's almost like the rest of the crypto community haven't clicked yet as to how big this is.  If other coins haven't got their ACCT implementations ready by the time Bitcoin does, Burst and Qora get colossal first-mover advantage.

We should try to get that thing started here ... i could help/provide a gui plugin for burst-wallet (contact me about that), but i have no skills implementing AT and Bitcoin part, mentioned by CIYAM:
 
So I think the Bitcoin script to do an ACCT would look something like this:

Code:
IF
   OP_SHA256
   CHECKSIGVERIFY
ELSE
   CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY DROP
   CHECKSIGVERIFY
ENDIF
2 CHECKMULTISIG

although I'm not sure if the above is correct (perhaps someone more familiar with Bitcoin script could provide some feedback).

Admittedly I'm not very well versed with P2SH so I'm not sure exactly how you could get the script that does not contain the nor public keys to actually work (but I do think this should be possible).


Maybe vcbs and burstdev are reading this, and are motiviated figuring this out?!
We could also try to collect a reward of a few million burst to attract devs that are able to help us here.
Sure we could collect that easy within community.

From what CIYAM mentioned in the other thread, it sounds like a significant portion of the required code is already in place and will just need tweaking to ensure it's compatible with whatever Bitcoin does.  I'm not a coder myself, but I suspect there might be a tiny bit of waiting involved at first to see exactly how it's going to be implemented in core.  But the GUI part is certainly something that needs to be ready for when the time comes.
