Finally!

Yep, two instances is the trick like always. It will work fine with two instances. We tested that.

Managed to compile under linux
But gpu load is 93%, when eqm or ewbf 98-99%
Code:
krnl@rig6:~/zcash/nheqminer/Linux_cmake/nheqminer_cuda_djezo$ ./nheqminer_cuda_tromp -t 0 -cv 0 -cd 0 -b 4000

I am no IT, but shouldnt you be running two instances to get higher GPU load? I see that you are running only one in NH miner.

It's nice but I feel like it's too little too late.
As I said earlier mining ZEC directly to BTC through nicehash was less profitable than the open source miners.
And there was no nicehash ZEC pool which would let miners mine ZEC directly (other than zcash.nicehash.com which was a terrible mess).
PS: also, while it's closed source with a fee (but can be used on all pools) EWBF_'s miner does 410 sol/s since December 7 (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ewbfs-cuda-zcash-miner-1707546).

Tnx for open source I bet some ppl with appreciate it

There are still some stuff to do work around to get few % faster speed and less CPU load. We have this in EQM, but the solver part is identical. Also, speed measuring system needs rewrite and different approach - current one would consume quite some CPU when doing speed calc if you have longer time intervals. And adding per device speed measuring is something many miners want. We let these tiny updates for the community to fix/add.

Hello!
We are proudly presenting you - open source and free to use CUDA ZEC miner. No limitations (works on any pool) and no dev fee.
We used our first ZEC miner for this purpose - nheqminer - it was forked many times on GitHub and it will be easy for most developers to adopt new solver into their forks.
Link: https://github.com/nicehash/nheqminer
Bins and linux compatibility will be available very shortly.
In future, we plan to bring same open approach to AMD card owners with the fastest OpenCL solver.
If you appreciate our work and would like to donate, just mine on NiceHash. We request nothing more from you
Note to all devs that are eager to include parts of code into their miner: cuda_djezo project is released under GPL 3.0 license, which means that you cannot use this code as a base or parts of the code to create closed source fee based miner. If you do that, you violate license terms.
