yep the question was about scrypt chacha/jane algos

@ sp have you ever looked into scrypt chacha/jane high n factor algos?
Atm nf 15 and 16 for yac and utc is relevant.
Shouldn't be too much work to look at cuz it is just a single algo like sha256 or scrypt.
The last working miner is now nearly one year old from february 2014 called cudaminer.
TIA

I think cudaminer does 0.37MHASH on a 750ti Even if manage to optimize it 300% to 1MHASH it is still 6 times less profitable than other algos. f,eks quark.
IMHO a waste of time to optimize it.

So for those of you who are still mining Scrypt with cudaminer, you can get a 1800% higher return if you switch to quark sp-mod(release 38).

sp_ if I read this right he pointed his wish to scrypt chacha & scrypt jane coins which are not that unprofitable as scrypt.
a single 750ti could make above 500hash/s on nf16 (YAC) which was some weeks ago the best deal arround here.
AMD sucked at this time because they had no optimized miner. But this changed.

Use Miner Control to switch between YAAMP and/or other pools, and more specifically, try my mod of it Tongue
This will allow you to setup your own hashrates. You can delete the other pools in the .conf if you only need YAAMP.

YAAMP ROUND-ROBIN CONFIGURATION--

The following is a working Windows Batch File for a GTX 960 using the yaamp auto-switch.  The "-r 0" flag allows yaamp to cycle through algorithms until the high-paying algorithm is served up.  The long "password" should be comma separated and have no spaces except immediately after the "-p".  Each line is broken by the formatting process on this blog after the "-p" password flag.  I inserted 1 extra blank line between each 1-line command statement for clarity.

There is no such simple solution on Linux, primarily because BASH does not have a goto command.  Save this text as "looper.bat".  Code follows:

:loop

ccminer.exe -r 0 -a x11 -o stratum+tcp://yaamp.com:3533 -u name -p x11=5.4,x13=4.2,x14=4.1,x15=3.6,quark=9.8,lyra2=0.7,fresh=6.1

goto loop

Certainly not as compact as the above bat but skunk posted a bash script back in November to do this (also integrating nicehash, and trademybit (RIP)): https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9434777 .  I also have my own bash script to do such things Wink

Thank you for posting this comment.  I have been attempting to use Skunk's BASH script, and to remove the TMB portion without harming the performance.  So far, I have not been able to run it successfully.  May be a typo, may be copy damage, Huh  I may post what I have, working or not.              --scryptr

QUBIT--

Here is my configuration line for adding Qubit algo to my YAAMP auto-switch batch file for a GTX 960.  This is a 1-line configuration string, broken after the "-p" flag by the blog formatting:

ccminer.exe -r 0 -a qubit -i 19.7 -f .01  -o stratum+tcp://yaamp.com:4733 -u name -p x11=5.4,x13=4.2,x14=4.1,x15=3.6,quark=9.8,lyra2=0.7,fresh=6.1,qubit=7.9

Without the "-f 0.01" flag, the algo does not mine, I get long successions of "boos".  Even with it, I am only mining at about 72% to 73% accepts.  I get a lot of "Low Difficulty Share" rejects, and long strings of "result does not validate on CPU".  

The algo has been best-paying several times today.       --scryptr

I could not get hamsterpool to work at all with any diff settings. All booo's.
I had to use R36 to get it to work at TBF but had to use difficulty 1.
EDIT: The only pool I can get the miner and pool to show the same is yaamp

The only way to fix this properly is to make a new parameter to autoadjust the diff.
Also a parameter for --No-submit-stale shares.

Maybe later.

I submitted a 3% faster keccak my looking at the wolf0 changes in the cryptonight miner and rewriting/optimizing it it to use uint2.

Since Keccak is used in most algos, a small speedup in quark/x11,x13,x14,x15. etc.

TBF wouldn't let me connect (Bad Access) and on hamsterpools whatever diff I try I can't get the pool to show my real hashrate. The closest I could get was with -f 0.01, anything lower means lower hashrate and anything higher introduces low difficulty shares.

I tested qubit on yaamp.com yesterday and the miner got the correct hash. Don't set the difficulty in the bat file. just run it with -a qubit

It works fine on yaamp so that must mean there is an issue with The Block Factory Pool and some setting. I prefer that one since I have been there for a while.

I guess I have to figure out what is wrong with that pool.


EDIT: Just found out that TBF does have a difficulty issue and it must be manually set lower.

@ sp_

Can you help me understand why in the miner (r36, same happens with r38) on qubit it shows 11,660 kh/s but I never show over 5,500 kh/s on the pool (the block factory)?

I have tried it on hamster pool with the same bat and only get booo's (message is low difficulty share). On digihash pool and miners pool eu I get to "Stratum difficulty set to xxx" and then nothing from there. NO hashing at all booo's or yay's.

Do I need to manually set the difficulty in the bats?

The GTX750 (non ti) has only got 512 cuda cores, while the gtx750ti has got 640 cores. A radeon 280x has 2048 cores.


But the 512 core gtx beats the 2048 core AMD:

Using Release 36 on Qubit I show I am getting 11,700 kh/s on a GTX970 but the pool never shows above 5,500 kh/s.

Is the miner way off or an issue with the pool?

I am on Windows 7 64 bit.

I tried the Release 38 but I get no hashes.

Which pool ?

The Block Factory.

Sorry can't tell for them - probably different implementation, but do you have rejects/invalids ?

Yes.

I am showing 4.51 Mh/s valid and 45.08 kh/s invalid for hash rate for the last 3 hours.

Hmm I know that from my pools, looks like a portion is "share above target" - it usually comes when vardiff retargets and the formula (or diff1) is wrong.. Its either a pool or a miner prob .. Can you test on any other pool to see if it works ?Smiley


Just getting back from work.

I tried the qubit miner on Hamster Pool and I get all booo's with the same bat. On digihash and minerspooleu when I start the bat it has a first line that says about the difficulty and then nothing. No hashes at all, it's like it is locked.
Just did a test again for R38 running qubit at HamsterPool (low hash as only running 65% TDP):
