Phm gave us his GPU miner code, and I merged in his changes into my project at https://github.com/evan82/darkcoin-sgminer

I got it to compile and it seems to work for me, although I have a terrible GPU so I'm not positive.

Try to compile it and let me know if it works so I can pay the man.

Thanks!


Holy crap time to go!  I'll see if I can get this running on my unix / BAMT rig with three Radeon GPUs.  I'll give it a shot, but I might need some step by steps!

Thanks.

Any solution for this yet?

#Read the README, compiles with march=native, only on CPUs supporting AES-NI instructions (it includes AVX)

Test it, and let me know Smiley

From 166 kh/s to 184 kh/s.
So, it is about 11 ~ 12% improvement.

I guess you have generic kernel, right?

With the i5-2400 that I tried, the boost was about 21%

What cpu? And do u compiled with -march=native? Just to know so we can make a statistic. Because, for sure, improvement depends by AVX and AES performances of the processor.

For now this version boost just the echo algo, if I'll have time I want to try to boost some other from the 11 algos Smiley.



Wow, that would be VERY awesome!

Allright, some stats on CPU performance.

Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40GHz: 419.57 khash/s
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1270 V2 @ 3.50GHz: 489.20 khash/s
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1270 v3 @ 3.50GHz: 572.52 khash/s

Nice work everyone! This coin is going places!

I'll have to try the new miner on my VPS!... Cheesy Hopefully it works!

Any work on a windows one yet? I Cheesy

Not sure what that means. I'm using a standard Ubuntu 13.10:

Ok, this is right. I tried before to compile with AES-NI without AVX, and I had a 14% improvement. Adding AVX I achieved 21%.

For me on ubuntu, on AWS instance from :  
311.87 khash/s (yay!!!) (1.2c)

[2014-02-15 00:03:03] accepted: 8/8 (100.00%), 375.04 khash/s (yay!!!)

Did anyone manage to compile it on a Digital Ocean droplet? Will there be an improvement?

play it safe....create 6 completely unique imaginary people.

Warning: VPS crypto mining may be dangerous for your mental health. (This is a joke Smiley)

I am mining on the lotterymining pool right now and I suppose there is something off with it. The block finding rate is very unstable even though the hashrate doesn't change that much. It differs from several blocks per hour to a couple blocks a day. I think there might be a problem with pool software or network connection.

As far as I understand very long time between blocks doesn't lead to larger rewards but only to wasted hashpower.

Yep, that's why I moved out of there temporarily.

i will restart the server tomorrow when im in harbour, i dont dare to do so now, since i dont know when i have internet, and when i dont, so i might end up restarting it, but unable to start up stratum when its done rebooting..

I haven't forgot about tip as well. Once I run all my workers it'll go. I'll report on how it goes on Xeons v2 vs Xeons v3.

The Future Of Work
New CPU Miner!!

I have created a new cpu-miner 64bit and I achieved about 22% more khs/sec .
 
This version is based on cpu-miner-1.2c by ig0tik3d, and plus uses AES-NI/AVX instructions from an other library, so it's usable with this list of Intel Processors:

http://ark.intel.com/search/advanced/?AESTech=true

and with these series by AMD:
    AMD Bulldozer-based processors
    AMD Piledriver-based processors.
    AMD Jaguar-based processors.
    AMD Kaveri-based processors.

I'll release it today, but it's in alpha stage and needs testing because I tried it just with a Sandy Bridge i5-2400 from a friend.

I have not cpus to mine, so bounties for my time will are very appreciated.

Let me know if you are interested.

Awesome, but I can't find instructions on how to put in march=native?  Where do I do that?  It's not in the readme?  Thanks, and I will donate if I get it running!

Gosh, I am getting old, was reading the install file  Lips sealed

Well, looks like it's running a little bit better Smiley  from 19kh/s  to 23 kh/s  Still, accepteds very few and far between, wish I knew why Sad  Tip on it's way (sorry, I'm not a big holder, but hope it helps Smiley )

From 19 to 23 it's a 21% improvement Smiley . What cpu do you use?

Thanks for the tip, it's appreciated Smiley

I'm sending a little more, I have one instance that went down to 15 kh/s  Must be the way they put the cpu's together??  I'm using Amazon, per the instructions on page one. I think I'm going to open a few more, it's inexpensive and I think worth it??  Just for the weekend Smiley

I am assuming the XCO address is your darkcoin address?  Better be, I sent twice, LOL!!!  Makes me wonder, if you send to a non-existent account, will it reject and come back?
