Topic: RTOS QNX/Linux and Xeon CPU feasability (Read 1534 times)
Mining performance on a RTOS should be about the same as mining performance on standard OSes, so the comparison table should be useful.
I want to know if its possible and how much hash/s I could expect on a real-time OS with multi-cores.
Settings:
I'm a real-time programmer and our computers are specifically built for real-time processing with custom motherboards and multi-core Xeon processors. Some computers have up to 16 cores which can run 100% of the time without problems or questions. They run on real-time QNX or a custom Redhat Linux with the same performance as QNX.
Cooling isn't a problem.
Forget about any GPU processing.
Questions:
Is there any Linux CPU mining software?
Can the software be used via telnet/ftp/mounting from a windows PC or require a monitor for settings?
Has anyone tried mining with QNX or a RTOS?
What kind of performance would I expect from a single core of a Xeon?
I'm aware of https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison but those all run on Windows which isn't a RTOS.
Has anyone tried isolating CPU cores for mining?
Thanks.
