Title: Different performamce of CPU scrypt mining on Windows XP/Windows 8 Post by: Raulnsh on May 10, 2013, 06:20:37 PM I have ~37 khash/s under Windows XP x64 and ~53 khash/s under Windows 8 x64.
8 threads, AMD FX 8320. minerd 2.23 x64 Possibly this is due to difference in scheduler policy: Windows 8 assigns dedicated kernel for each thread whereas XP kicks threads from one kernel to another. I do not want to upgrade Windows XP to Windows 8. Instead, I would like to change Windows XP scheduler policy - is it possible? |
