Topic: [PROFITABLE CPU MINING] Mine from home / work! Tutorial - page 3. (Read 102189 times)

You can see what yam eventually picks as the best option and then change it in the batch file.

I've seen it mentioned several times in this thread to initially set Av to 0, then watch printout (I assume this refers to the dos window) to see what Yam picks, then change that in the bat file.  I have been running for about 20 minutes now, AV started at 1 then about 5 minutes later went to AV 2........then 1bout 10 minutes later went to AV 3.

How do I know which one is best to use?


Thanks!

This is the dev's credentials.
You can register on mmc.gpools.com and enter your own username and worker instead.

Older CPUs usually don't perform very well for this coin, but it's still worth trying to see how it compares to other CPU coins.

What about people who have CPU with no AES-NI support. I have 20 x Core2Quad without AES-NI and MMC is unprofitable for me...
Quark, PTS some time ago was very profitable...

what is this address in list of pools ?

mine = getwork://yvg1900.mmc_1:[email protected]:8080/mmc

why is it in format for username yvg1900 with worker mmc_1 and password x ?

does this mean one can use anyone of ( walletkey OR username.worker.password for gpools ?

Try the generic one.
If it doesn't work, ask yvg1900 in the forum post I've linked to on my original post.

What version of Yam Miner do I use with an AMD FX 8150 processor with the Bulldozer microarchitecture?  I need to use the second option so I can set it to use only 7 of the processors.

Thanks itskik78.  I'll give it a shot over there.

Both of you are better off asking yvg1900 (the miner programmer) on this thread:
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=2609.0

HI all, i'm running on ubuntu server, it run well.
But i hear someone on ypool memtion that if we can enable the huge and also attach thread to physical socket, it would be more performance?
Anyone know how to setup the numactl and huge please help.
My server config as below.


Thanks.

Hello folks,

I have been having a real bear of a time getting huge pages to work with the miner.  Running I-5 3570 Ivy Bridge.  overclocked to 4.4 ghz.  8 gigs of ram.  Windows 7 64 bit ultimate.  

Error message is as follows (see below in more detail)

Can not allocate hugepages memory, error=1450
Warning: MemoryCoin2 memory block for thread 2 allocated in non-hugepages memory

Running yam-yvg1900-M7m-win64-ivy-bridge.  Running memory coin wallet 0.8.583.0 unk-beta.  I like it better than the standalone since I can jump to that webpage where it gives my mmc stats.  

yam-mmc.cfg settings are:

threads = 3
mining-params = mmc:av=0&aesni=on&m=3072
mine = getwork://[email protected]:80:8880:8881:8882:8883/mmc
mine = getwork://[email protected]:8080:8081:8082:8083/mmc

#proxy = socks4a://127.0.0.1:9150
compact-stats = 1
print-timestamps = 0

Running three threads instead of four threads because with four I can't work at all on my system.  I just upgraded my system ram from 4 to 8 gigs. I've tried changing memory settings to 512 but program says it's too small and minimum needs to be 1024 per thread.  I tried going above 3072 and got the same error message (1024 per thread).

I googled this:

https://www.google.com/#q=how+to+enable+large+page+support+in+windows+7+

went into this link:

To enable the lock pages in memory option

    On the Start menu, click Run. In the Open box, type gpedit.msc.

    The Group Policy dialog box opens.

    On the Group Policy console, expand Computer Configuration, and then expand Windows Settings.

    Expand Security Settings, and then expand Local Policies.

    Select the User Rights Assignment folder.

    The policies will be displayed in the details pane.

    In the pane, double-click Lock pages in memory.

    In the Local Security Policy Setting dialog box, click Add.

    In the Select Users or Groups dialog box, add an account with privileges to run sqlservr.exe.


Foofoobean (my pc) was already set as a user.  I also added "everyone" as a user.  I tried adding "users" but that didn't work.  Then I rebooted and tried again.  Same error message as above.

My HPM right now is around 6.5.  I'm hoping with hugepages enabled  I will get higher output.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  

Glad to see you're mining!
As for custom configurations - We will release a more configurable wallet miner in a future version (it's in our todo list already)..
As for your HPM - it's pretty low. You might want to try the little bit harder way of mining (the second part of my post) to try and increase that.

Very low HPM... As I wrote above, try the second part of my post by downloading the miner manually.
You can buy a lot of things with your MMCs as we're in CoinPayments, so any site that accepts CoinPayments accepts MMC.
If you close the miner window it will stop mining (if that's what you want to do - closing the window will close it safely).


Here's a list of CPUs and their HPMs.
NOTE that you should look at the YAM Miner HP/m column and not the other ones as they are far behind in performance.
http://mmcwiki.com/memorycoin_mining_intel_hardware_comparison

How can I finf out which CPU is best for mining? Is there a site that compares different CPUs and shows their hashrate?

hello,

this is the first time i am trying to mine
i got a laptop with a i7-3630qm
i downloaded the wallet and stared the pool miner
it is working good as far i can see
it is running at a 0.205139 hashes per minute
but is got some questions:
what can i do with the mmc i earned?
how do i safely close the program?

Hello,
Im just trying this system as it seems easy for a mid-noob like me. Also coz my GPU is a crappy GeForce 220, but i have an i5 2.80 Ghz with 4Gb RAM.

I downloaded the wallet/miner, at last something that dont need from my inexistant coding skills xD
But.... Unfortunately i dont mine anything :-( or at least thats what i see when i click on Pool balance button and carries me to a web that apparently tracks my results... Suggestions/protips for this noob? Thanks a lot!

http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb250/orlandofriki/MMCscreenshot.jpg

EDIT:
It seems its mining, but with a HPM of 0.5 / 0 and CONNECTED YES/NO from time to time.
Any way i can set up the wallet miner to use 2 Gb instead 1 and 2 processors? (my i5 has 4)

Thanks a lot in advance!

It looks fine.
It seems that MMCPool was down for a bit when you tried submitting shares, so it used redundancy and started mining on 1gh pool (and will do so until MMCPool gets back online).
Both pools maintain a balance and a minimum payout of (AFAIK) 0.5 MMC so you will get your MMC when it reaches that minimum.

Enjoy!

Hi,

Getting this displayed while running yam

Error: Invalid content length received from [work.mmcpool.com:80]
Info: Reconnect to [work.mmcpool.com:80] in 41 seconds
Found solution - 12019 / 1968 /

but a bit farther it displays


work.mmcpool.com: Failure, Shares Submitted 0, Accepted 0
mmcpool.1gh.com: On-line, Shares Submitted 9, Accepted 9
mmc.gpools.com: Idle, Shares Submitted 0, Accepted 0

Just wondering what these means. Do I still get MMC even if it is only the mmcpool.1gh.com working?

Thanks. 

It works, looks just like the screenshot mranonymus took a couple posts up, I'll read it and see what it says , thanks.

Does it work or crash?
Read the hugepages readme file attached to the miner for more info on how to improve performace.

When I start up the L5639 rig it says huge pages not available / performance may suffer,  also says error 1300.
