A big improvement for linux miners.
One caution though, the power draw at least for 380 and 280 class cards also goes up somewhat proportionately. For the ASUS 280(x) cards, the sols/s just about doubled along with the power draw.
With this jump I had to do some rearrangement of the power distribution.
If you are already running at the limit of your power and cooling budget, you may want to go over your power/cooling distribution layout before you make the v5 jump.

Yeah I can only run 1 instance (win), 2 slows hashrate down a lot. just testing one card, cpu is a 4.5ghs i7-2700k. 480 4g nitro.
The same here. Windows 10, 4Gb RAM + 16Gb swap file. 6x 470 8 Gbsame happens to me even on an i7 rig

testing https://github.com/dagf2101/silentarmy on windows, requires python of course
getting 90+ on 1070 https://forum.z.cash/t/silentarmy-v5-115-sol-s-on-r9-nano-70-sol-s-on-gtx-1070/3580/1163

How's the cpu usage on it?

I haven't included the latest updates in R2, so that may be it. I will build a new version soon.
i installed cygwin and tried to run your R2 versionbut it tells me cygmin is not an internal or external command
did I do something wrong?
Thanks!

5x 1070 cards on celeron dual core is no go, CPU usage is 100% and speed is 40% or 30-35 sol/s per card

Two 1080 cuda 8 ubuntu 16.04 - went something wrong or is that the max with those cards?

I just uploaded a new version of my Windows build of SILENTARMY v5:
https://mega.nz/#F!iwYQhI6S!2vl0D3jz3fH3-bZxHUurBg
This *should* work with NVIDIA cards.
If it doesn't, please let me know with as much information as possible.

Just says 'mining on 1 device' then nothing after that (AMD cards).

R2 made my old gtx 680 work. Was already working great on my rx 470s. Does R2 fix anything other than nvidia support? In other words, any point updating my amd rigs?

how to change our GPU Memory Clock in Linux?
i want to lower my mod GPU Memory Clock.
Thanks
/usr/bin/aticonfig for Fglrx and /usr/bin/nvidia-smi for Nvidia.i want to lower my mod GPU Memory Clock.
Thanks
Have you tried your 1080 with latest build on Linux? Getting poor performance compared to 1070
--instances=2 Possible faster
2 instances is the default without including the argument. November 11, 2016, 10:41:52 PM
Is someone getting the 115 sol/s on the R9 nano?
Only getting 96-100sol/s on mine using the Windows build.
Just wondering if that's possible with the linux build?
FYI, running the nanos on stock bios

Does sa-solver.exe work? If it does, the problem is definitely with the Python installation.
Thanks for the report! I forgot that the "-O5" OpenCL build option is AMD-specific. I will fix that ASAP.
