This is greatly appreciated! If possible (unless bitfreak has responded to Pallas and said yes already), it'd be great if you could eventually compile the qt wallet as well. I use both cryptonited and qt. I use the qt wallet on my PC because it's easier to look through transactions etc with the GUI.

Regarding that, is it possible to use both the new cryptonited and old qt for the same wallet on different computers? As in, can I use the new cryptonited wallet on my rigs and the old qt wallet on my PC without messing anything up?

Edit: Also, will the new wallet have to connect to only other nodes with the same wallet version in the config file?

Think it's safe, pallas avoided syncloop by limiting number of getslice from one peer, it shouldn't affect your local copy of chain and you're free to connect to any node (anyway, nodes with new wallet preferred)

Stuck with qt build, environment doesn't recognise half of static qt libs so can't compile qt bin, will investigate further. Some patches have already been needed because of newer dependant libs versions. As I see wallet is based on bitcoin-qt 0.9.x with modifications.

0.1.3.0 built for Windows:

https://github.com/palginpav/Cryptonite/releases/tag/0.1.3.0

With latest pallas commits, krnlx patches not included (this time, need someone to test my build first) think I didn't forget to statically link somethng  Grin

Qt wallet will be added later, setting up build environment for this is pure pain (at least for me).

Test if you want and report.

And everybody have a nice weekend!



Thanks for your build!
As soon as we get enough good reports, I will put it into the first post and notify btc38!

Reducing CPU usage while accepting new block.

It is indeed a lot faster when accepting blocks, that's really what was needed, great! :-)
But it will need to be tested and hard limits removed.
Currently my test wallet hanged on trie sync, not necessarily related to the patch.

Trie sync issue is another problem, but I never seen it, when I force wallet to sync from one node (connect=xcn.suprnova.cc).

Thanks, I will try this.
Maybe the faster AcceptBlock (which is actually a faster Activate), since it should speedup getslice as well, may make the trie sync issue much less common.
Thus, when the network is updated, it may go away by itself.

So people please test the krnlx patch to death, and also we need to set a much higher hard limit for block number or make it dynamic (without this we can't push the improvement to production).

GUIDE: Compiling xcn wallet with TCMALLOC allocator.

Quote
The fastest malloc we’ve seen; works particularly well with threads
and STL.

This fix eventual memory leaks and improve overal stability and performance.

1. Download and compile TCMALLOC

Code:
sudo apt-get install libunwind-dev
git clone https://github.com/gperftools/gperftools
cd gperftools/
./autogen.sh
./configure CFLAGS="-O3 -march=native" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -march=native" --prefix=/usr
make -j4
make install

2. Compile xcn wallet with TCMALLOC library

Code:
git clone https://github.com/pallas1/Cryptonite
cd Cryptonite
./autogen.sh
./configure CFLAGS="-O3 -march=native -fno-builtin-malloc -fno-builtin-calloc -fno-builtin-realloc -fno-builtin-free"  CXXFLAGS="-O3 -march=native -fno-builtin-malloc -fno-builtin-calloc -fno-builtin-realloc -fno-builtin-free" CRYPTO_LIBS="-lcrypto -ltcmalloc"
make -j4

Then check, that cryptonited linked with TCMALLOC :

There is another bottleneck in wallet - to many malloc() (c++ new()) calls

I have one old trick from 2006, which seems stable, I am testing it now.

Hi,is it possible to solo mine? suprnova disconnect too often.
my conf is
" rpcuser=rpcuser
rpcpassword=rpcpass
rpcport=14443
listen=1
server=1"
after I started ccminer,It shows "No payout address provided,switchin to network",is it ok?
thanks.


Getwork, yes it's correct.

wallet takes 10 min to start, after sync it takes 6+GB RAMM + CPU load very huge Huh


are you talking about the standard wallet or the new krnlx patch?
the standard wallet takes less than 1GB on my machine.

Reducing CPU usage while accepting new block.

I mean did you measure the time difference?

OLD


With patch




This CPU load spikes appear when new block accepted

With Valgrind/callgrind I found bottlenecks, related to slow block accept in cryptonite wallet.

THIS IS ONLY FOR TESTING. IT IS DIRTY, AND WALLET WILL CRASH AFTER BLOCK 2097152

https://github.com/krnlx/Cryptonite/commit/d0363d10ffa8d8cf1fa9e3d1749408827aed8961

//TODO

1. Test everything many times : sync, sync from scratch, from snapshot, etc, mining, transactions

2. Automatic memory size adjustment of MAX_BLOCK

3. Reducing SAFE_UNIQ

4. Test again.

Thanks very much! What kind of improvement are you getting with this patch?
I will test it ASAP! :-)
