Will this work with Decred (Blake256)? If not, can you please add it?

Thanks a lot! Smiley

What do you guys mine right now, ETH or vanilla?

None of the two.
But if I had to choose one, it'd be vanilla (or decred).

Genoil can you have ethminer delete the old dag files when it starts generating new ones? It really starts to build up after a week when the DAG file keeps regenerating and eating more space.
Yes. What do you think it's worth?

Today I have put out some crab pots, and some nets to catch cod. Nice wheather... need a break from internet/coding/trolling...
My world is bleeding.  10million people have lost their homes in Syria. I want you to donate some coins to the people who lost everything. Please reserve some coins for the future. peace and love. Sp-mod vacation....

It's completely offtopic, but whatever. I'm liking your drunken peace and love thing going on but I'm having a hard time sympathising with Syrian refugees considering the vast majority of them are completely incompatible with modern civilizations and they are pretty much ruining my country.

CRAB POTS--

The off-topic, whiny trolling in this thread is indicative of an over-the-limit catch in crabs, not to mention what the fish nets brought in.  Coders gonna code, haters gonna hate....

lol...

Each instance of ethminer keeps a copy of the full dag in system RAM to validate a solution. However, if it is not present, it will perform a slightly slower "light" validation (https://github.com/Genoil/cpp-ethereum/blob/master/libethcore/EthashAux.cpp line 267-276). If you would load the dag in chunks,

But if you remove cpu validation, the etherminer doesn't need to use any ram to store the dag file. The dagfile is only located in the GPU memory. Should be an option to do this, and also an option to load the file to the gpu in chunks. I am too lazy to upgrade my rigs with 8 GB of ram just to mine ETHER.

I've given this some thought. It's fairly easy to free the DAG system RAM after the GPU is loaded and switch to light verification. I've tried it and it works fine. But for a multi-GPU rig in full operation it is a bit more difficult. Before clearing the system RAM, you need to make sure all GPU's have loaded the DAG, so you would need a monitoring thread do handle that.

Then, if you would want to load the DAG in chunks, you would have to sync the loading of each chunk onto each GPU or sequentially load in chunks for each GPU.

Finally, the generation of DAG files also takes a lot of RAM. You would either need to chunk that as well, or precompute them on a separate machine.

I think a mixed mode approach that loads the right compute platform and kernel for the right card is easier to implement.

Genoil can you have ethminer delete the old dag files when it starts generating new ones? It really starts to build up after a week when the DAG file keeps regenerating and eating more space.
