Title: BitcoinMinerSaver - Front-End ScreenSaver for Miners NEW VERSION
Post by: Carandiru on May 28, 2011, 09:20:26 PM
I just wanted to announce a new version of BitcoinMinerSaver with a couple significant changes.

First it now sets the affinity of the Miner Process to one core, in hope of lower power consumption and better performance.

Second is a implementation of a WatchDog - if the Miner Process is idle for 15s or more the screensaver will kill and restart the process. It will also log
this information to the screen displaying the number of restarts and the last restart time.

You can grab it at my website!! Source Code is also available for download.
