Any hashrate increase? Like for 1.5.8. when you didn´t say anything and my vegas hashed like 200 more per rig, what a nice surprise
lol,no not this time. I am surprised too because i had a 0.2-0.3% hash increase on my 580 8g test card, so thats so low i did not want to mention it, but looks like its more than 0.2% on Vegas
Great update, good thinking on devfee pool settings, although a hardcoded fallback in code would still be beneficial.
Doktor, how costly is algo change? I'm working on a simple coin switching proxy (forked from a sebseb7's repository of cryptonote-proxy) which works well for same algo coins. The upside is there's no hasrate drop between changes as SRBMiner (or any other miner connected to it) just sees it as a new job.
That said, just as GPU's can run several different shaders, how hard would it be to change algo without a restart? Memory would be reserved for the one with the most mem requirements. It would be awesomely dandy if SRB could do this, it would support an extra json property to change algos in the job request.
There are hardcoded fallbacks, in case the site isn't reachable, those are used. I hope they will never be used
I know about that proxy, i like the idea , it can be very useful for coin switching on the fly.
Algo switching could be a problem, but a very easy and elegant way would be just to restart miner with the new config. It shouldn't take more than 15-20 sec if the user has cached files.
It's interesting that you ask this now, because i am in a phase of planning and working on a built-in coin switching (for same algo) in SRBminer based on profitability.
