Thanks, i have a strange feeling... With your miner, i get 12Mh/s with all pool on groestl. I have 2 270x.
But with the grs-sgminer i get 7-8 with all other pool than cryptohunger and 30Mh/s with cryptohunger ... same configuration. There is something inside the code of the grs-sgminer make by cryptohunger that can give some strange hashrate ? ...
I don't know but now i'm switching on qubit, earning is the same i think.
I don't know if this helps:
http://myriad.theblockexplorer.com/help.php12Mh/s seems normal with my config, but the hashrate with grs-sgminer on cryptohunger is crazy (2.5x than expected) and the hashrate with grs-sgminer(almost 2x less than expected) on other pool is very very low... so i think there is something wrong inside the grs-sgminer and cryptohunger...
grs-sgminer for cryptohunger has optimized kernel for groestl algo but it is closed source and the miner/pool has a fee for the optimization
i know there is a fee and i still mine at cryptohunger because i get more coins from mining there than other pools despite the fee, so the optimization is effective
but i did not expect the fee to be so high at 20%
i can confirm the fee is 20% by looking at the sender payout address which is D96y4y74NUegfYJ8yn9chxbPLrRiypCF6V
http://insight.dgb.cryptopoolmining.com/address/D96y4y74NUegfYJ8yn9chxbPLrRiypCF6V- notice newly generated coins, 7647, are sent to two addresses
> address 1 D96y4y74NUegfYJ8yn9chxbPLrRiypCF6V (payout address) = 6117 or 80% of 7647
> address 2 DBy3212dWAPPzPcyt5fSSchjyozyr5ejLw (pool fee address) = 1529 or 20% of 7647
http://insight.dgb.cryptopoolmining.com/address/DBy3212dWAPPzPcyt5fSSchjyozyr5ejLw- notice pool fee address has total received coins of 2463903 DGB
- cryptohunger site has total confirmed blocks 1440
> 1440 blocks * 7647 DGB per block * 20% fee = 2,202,336 which is close with block explorer total received since earlier blocks had more DGB
despite the 20% fee though im still getting more coins from the optimized kernel
- other sgminer groestl my hash is 10.1 Mh/s
- on grs-sgminer "displayed" hash is 13.1 Mh/s or an increase of 29.7%, so that is 29.7% more coins on cryptohunger
- notice i use the word "displayed hash" because grs-sgminer already factors in the 20% fee on the hash display
- so I assume my real hash using grs-sgminer is 16.375 Mh/s but only displays 80% (13.1 Mh/s)
- this is important so that when you use displayed hashrate on mining calculators you get the proper approximation of coins to mine at a given difficulty
hope this helps
I use the srcxxx’s optimized sgminer with the --myriadcoin-groestl kernel switch (which is not the –optimized switch to be used only on his pool). --myriadcoin-groestl works on all pools and gives me almost double the hashrate that the sgminer prettyhatemachine version gives me with only an ~25% increase in electrical usage and slightly higher temps. The added additional gain to that 25% that the –optimized switch gets you - only on his pool - is minor in comparison, and will not make up for your “hidden fees” even in your wildest dreams. (Try 48 hour minimum benchmarking on various pools to confirm.)
HOWEVER, keep in mind that you use this miner at your own risk and that you should have adequate security measures in place (along with perhaps a nice little autodestruct honey pot) since this is the only version/flavour of sgminer that I know of that gets heavily flagged as being a Trojan on the part of a good many AV companies. https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/f395b88edb6d65bae2f8850b2b15cf9f0972b14d96ca0b376716fc9dcc2712f8/analysis/1409906301/BTW, I love that phase “hidden fees”. Can’t get enough of this doublespeak, euphemism ridden world we live in.
That’s a fantastic way of making skimming sound a whole lot better.
..........@ DEV can you please update list. THX
