Possible feature request.

How does PM handle the auto-tune settings? Are they “remembered” in any way? Or do you waste 5-10mins of sub optimal hashrates at the beginning of every time you start the miner?

If they aren’t remembered, maybe you could have the miner auto-append the config.txt or the start.bat file with the optimized gt values? That way you won’t have to auto-tune when simply re-running the miner.

Bring up the stats and copy the -gt parameter into your start file for next time.

1:Nvidia GPUs)
  -gt Set the GPU tuning parameter (8 to 400). The default is 15. You can change the
          tuning parameter interactively with the '+' and '-' keys in the miner's console window (DONT WORK ON NVIDIA) + and - klik get a notification working at amd.


2:-gswin GPU stats time window (5-30 sec; default: 15; use 0 to revert to pre-2.8 way of showing momentary stats) I've put it -gswin 0 but do not see any difference on the screen I use NVIDIA GPU
does anyone know what this gwin is for?

3:-gsi to set the speed stats interval (5-30 seconds, default 5; 0 turns off the speed stats). The detailed stats are still shown every 45 seconds and aren't affected by the -gsi value
I have put the -gsi 10 but see 4MH lower on the 5 minutes AVG -gsi 15 of course even lower and on -gsi 0 it is completely wrong solution temporarily -minrigspeed much lower than normal otherwise the Rig starts every time again

Once it finds the proper settings - you can copy them to your startup parameters.

How often do you restart your miner?

That’s irrelevant to my question.

At the very least it’s useful to know what values the auto tuning settled on

Can anyone explain the time value circled:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/4nnsa2aii9bvb41/mine.jpg?dl=0

The time value below it is the uptime for the miner, but I do not understand what the time value for the pool represents.

When pool disconnects, miner begins new timer. That's your new time count since that or other event occurred. Current total time still ticking. At least, that's how I understand it.

Running 18 AMD cards across 2 rigs.

1x rig using 3.0a and i have a 1 MH increase from 2.9e.  It is now the same hashrate as claymore 11.6.   Running at 277.6 across 9 cards. Cards are 3x MSI rx 570 gaming x, 2x rx 580 Nitro+, 3x rx 570 pulse and 1x MSI rx 570 armor.
2.9e GT was set at 17 across the board.

RUnning auto-tuned GT.
Stable for 24 hours now.

1x rig just started running 3.0b upgraded from 2.9e with random cards between MSI gaming X, armor, powercolor, xfx and asus.  .3 MH increased from 276.1 to 276.4 but the hashrate bounces around alot more with averages coming to the same as 276.1.  Auto tuned GT.

2.9e GT was set at 14 across the board.

Sorry if this is a stupid request, but would it be possible to add a feature for naming gpu's?  I know you can re-number them, but custom alphanumeric naming might help me take out some frustration on poorly performing cards. Tongue

Reading all the posts regarding dual mining (dead atm IMO).... I wonder if it was possible to mine ethash (memory is everything, core almost doesn't matter) alongside x16r (core is everything, memory almost doesn't matter).... any thoughts?

Imagine that.. both algos largely asic-resistant..... a gpu miner's dream come true... if any1 comes up with it, yeah it would really push the gpus to the limit, BUT it would be a killer thing even if both algos ran at 80% of there solo performance/efficiency.

any plans on doing dual?.

Dual mining is dead. XVG just got attacked again. Sia and decred are owned by ASICs...For dual mining, there is claymore. I hope Phoenix won't do the mistake to implement dual mining.


Whoever introduces ethash/zilliqa dual mining first, will make great job

Zilliqa is which algo?


Its very unique (they call whole thing "sharding" instead "mining"), and its partially based on ethash

have been trying to use Phoenix on one of my small rigs -- keep getting a variety of cuda errors sometimes including illegal instruction -- with the miner crashing right after start -- it also now has decided not to write logfiles so i don't know what the problem is now -- running win 10  with 4gig ddr3 with  2-1060 3gb 2-1060 6gb 2 r9 280x and 1 rx570 8gb -- currently using claymore with no issues.  Have increased the virtual memory to 60 gig from 30 gig added the -log 2 commands -- still crashes right away -- any suggestions would be appreciated.  The rig is really just a spare parts rig -- but hashes quite well.

ok turns out part of this is win 10 -- lets just say it sucks .

The cuda errors are still happening will run for 20 minutes and then will crash -- running on ubq so dag shoud not be an issue -- cards are overclocked but not by much -- did try it with stock and same thing happens

With -gsi 30, my reported hashrate on the nanopool is much lower than miner window.. please fix it.


why is the -gt ?? option has no effect whatsoever on the mining result hashrate on the Nvidia GPUs, everything for amd and for nvidia gpus niks.al you do not put anything on the start.bat if you press S is standard on -gt 15. people best solution for the -GSI 0 and the -minrigspeed certainly 40 or 50 lower put due to startup rig, unfortunately on the pool lower report hashrate but there is currently nothing to do until version 3.0c comes out.

Thanks dev I keep using the version 3.0b, with a small adjustment in the start bat the -minrigspeed 133.000 to -minrigspeed 80.000 at least now no restart anymore, but -gsi 0 setting stays much lower report hashrate on the pool ethermine see.I hope therefore also version 3.0C everything is solved soon and no additional problems.

how to set -gt in 3.0b?!
tried
-gt 8,9,10 - but it ignored the input and started autotuning ?!

PS: 1 hour later it still autotunes (up tp gt values 50) - on system with just 3 cards...

Same isssue here, -gt is not working anymore
  We can't reproduce this problem here: when -gt is specified, the auto-tune doesn't start automatically, and when it isn't, it does as it should be.  Could you please send as a log file (especially the first few pages)?


Thanks dev for update -gsi option on -gsi 0 is super only on the pool reported hashrate is no longer correct with what on the screen is given much lower, and -gt option does not work properly rig start again with the communication setting -minrigspeed not achieved therefore restart. like an early solution.  Huh
   Yes, we can reproduce the -gsi and -minrigspeed problems, sorry about that. They will be fixed in 3.0c.


How to see which gt parameter is used while it mined?
   You can press 's' key in the console and you will see the current -gt values like this:

Current -gt 89,91,91

I try 3.0b on nvidia gpus. Its 5 - 6 mh/s better hasrate if i compare 3.0b or older version. Nice Smiley
