Title: CP3U SHA Scrypt Quark [XMR-XDN-BCN-BTC-LTC-QRK] win64 CPU Miner i3i5i7 Bulldozer
Post by: Palmdetroit on November 30, 2013, 07:28:37 PM
CP3U- Now Mine Bitcoin, Litecoin, Quark , or any similar coin!!! 64 Bit Windows

Win64 Only!

10/30 Added CryptoNote / Monero miner

These are 64-bit hardware-specific miners! Please choose the one that matches your cpu!
Code:
AMD: Bulldozer Improved2
Intel: i3i5i7 Improved2
win64_all_Improved2 if above two fail

Examples:
Code:
For scrypt based coins, such as LTC:
minerd.exe --url 127.0.0.1:port -u user -p pass

For Sha256 Based coins, such as BTC:
minerd.exe -a sha256d --url=stratum+tcp://127.0.0.1:port --userpass=user:pass

For Quark Based Coins:
minerd.exe -a quark --url stratum+tcp://qrk.coinmine.pl:6010 -u palmdetroit.1 -p 1




Use at own risk, test with backed up wallet/dir. Not responsible,  Due diligence, make sure review source

Minerd.exe will show up as a virus in some cases, although this is a false positive! (descendants of Pooler's Miner will have same detections)

Easy P2pool mining:
Neisklar's P2Pool - 3% fee

http://176.221.46.81:8372/static/

Example command-line or to place in .bat:
Code:
Minerd.exe -a quark --url 176.221.46.81:8372 -O QV41kKfw9L6qNr43SNRFci9HzgsxeJf5yh:x


1) replace QV41kKfw9L6qNr43SNRFci9HzgsxeJf5yh to address you would like your quark sent too.(do not replace :x)

2) Profit! you will see payments coming into the address you specified in 1.

so the miner is the wallet? how does that work? or are we supposed to use the miner from august?

This is just an optimized standalone miner, you also need the client, please get that from the main Quark thread. In the link above I made new files for multiple types of CPUs. See my message above on how to mine with the p2pool. (work in progress)

Will update it with solo mining instructions as well  ;)

2) how can it be run under linux ?

yes it works with pools, please see my first response above, I have tested the clients using p2pool.

I will release some more variants, and the faster client as soon as I can.

What cpu are you using?

I added .bat files to https://sourceforge.net/projects/philosopherstone/files/QRK/

download Win64_all.zip (again) and run the .bat - tell me what happens.

should work on most every chip.

If that doesn't work your not 64 bit win or the chip is too old to use sse2

my only request if o have not done it already is can you post it on our forum - it will be very useful there  i might make an actual  "mining" section - i'll go look

The Athlon II series most definitely supports it, sse2 was introduced in the Athlon 64.

thank you, so its not working here, tried x64 and legacy, intel i5 2nd with p2ppool as you described

Are you seeing

Code:
[2013-11-30 23:35:25] Stratum detected new block
[2013-11-30 23:35:43] Stratum detected new block
[2013-11-30 23:35:56] Stratum detected new block

Those should go by pretty quick if its working correctly.

Try it with http://qrk.coinmine.pl/

I put the batch in the files (may need to dl again) to mine with this pool now as it seems to have better latency. Also check your CPU usage.. should be running near 100% with default settings

Easy P2pool mining:

1)Run Start_miner.bat

2) If it runs then you simply need to adjust .bat file as follows:
replace QV41kKfw9L6qNr43SNRFci9HzgsxeJf5yh to address you would like your quark sent too.

3) Profit! you will see payments coming into the address you specified in 2.

Example:
Minerd.exe -q -a quark --url 176.221.46.81:8372 -O QV41kKfw9L6qNr43SNRFci9HzgsxeJf5yh:x

Update * added .txt and .bat to archives.


is 176.221.46.81 your pool?  that gets super high # of DOA

No, that is some p2pool I found...easiest to set up, no account needed, it does pay on time but I recommend http://qrk.coinmine.pl  (not p2pool)

I've only tested for a bit on vishera (bdver2), which works fine.

Still solo mining with gpus though, ~ 75 watts for 2+ mh/s from caymans.

Thanks for testing,  I also tested the bulldozer one on 8150, 4300, I did test out a piledriver one too.. maybe 10% increase, maybe not. I'm pretty sure you can push 1.5m on a 8350 @ ~125w.. Id love to get some numbers on a 9590

There is some room to do more improvements on the code still.

That's exactly what I'm seeing. But does that mean it's working? Why does it not report hashrate? Also, the pool you defaulted to is not indicating any hash rate for the worker.

Do you know how to fix that?... if you see a problem with that.


Title: Re: Quark QRK optimized win64 CPU Miners i7 Bulldozer Haswell
Post by: ||bit on December 01, 2013, 10:56:59 AM
I took the "-q" flag out and saw some thread activity. But it didn't read like anything you posted above. Also, it indicated just a few kilohash, nowhere near 1MH. Maybe it was so low it would not register on the website.
I have a 3.40 Ghz Intel (SandyBridge) i7-2600 ... I'd have thought that would be a good CPU to mine with, but apparently not.

I've spent nearly half a day trying to figure out the scattered shoddy quark documentation across all these threads. And still no real success. Yours is perhaps the closest I've come to figuring something out.


Title: Re: Quark QRK optimized win64 CPU Miners i7 Bulldozer Haswell
Post by: ||bit on December 01, 2013, 11:13:29 AM
I figured out my problem. It's kinda silly, but to help others, I'll describe what happened. I had my config file in my wallet set to automine. So, it was mining while the software was connected. Essentially, I had two miners competing for the processor. ALSO... I was using the legacy software, and not the i7 software.

It's mining at near 1MH. Some accepted values have been reported. Wow. This is a little bit of a relief.

Is there a GPU miner for this yet?... I'm kinda hoping not to avoid more headaches... and so we are all on the same playing field.


Title: Re: Quark QRK optimized win64 CPU Miners i7 Bulldozer Haswell
Post by: Palmdetroit on December 03, 2013, 12:08:50 AM
There is indeed a GPU miner but I think it takes a % of your mining, haven't looked at it.

10%. Kinda hard to solo at this point unless you have a lot of GPUs too.

Well I heard that GPU miner is solo only, with CPU  miner you can just put it on a bunch of cpus and point them all to your own client or use pools.

Its still profitable to mine so expect it to keep increasing  :)

I just used the newest flag for haswell, although reported to me 5%+ faster it's in the margin of error and most likely adds nothing or near it since AVX2 is the only improvement I know of from the lesser build.

There is shortcuts to some of the algs in quarkcoin that I have not implemented in release d binary, but they are only about ~15% atm

Im using minerd_w32_sse3.exe for my Q6600 and it shows the hashes and speed on every thead, i've created another worker for my laptop which is an i5-2410M 2.4Ghz to try to speed things up (just temporarily, while it's still somewhat minable, I dont wanto damage it). I was planning to leave it for the night and see if I wake up with results, but im only seeing "Stratum detected new block" all the time and nothing else. Is this normal? Why your version of minerd doesn't show speed and hashes? It would be better, it feels like you are doing something, since pool information on the websites is useless since it's always lagged.

Btw, about false positives, just always download the stuff from a thrusted source, but most antivirus are throwing miners as trojans these days.

Does it not report the successful share?

It reports like this:
Code:
[2013-11-30 23:10:22] accepted: 219/220 (99.55%), 713.56 khash/s (yay!!!)

thank you, so its not working here, tried x64 and legacy, intel i5 2nd with p2ppool as you described

Are you seeing

Code:
[2013-11-30 23:35:25] Stratum detected new block
[2013-11-30 23:35:43] Stratum detected new block
[2013-11-30 23:35:56] Stratum detected new block

Those should go by pretty quick if its working correctly.

Try it with http://qrk.coinmine.pl/

I put the batch in the files (may need to dl again) to mine with this pool now as it seems to have better latency. Also check your CPU usage.. should be running near 100% with default settings



Im using minerd_w32_sse3.exe for my Q6600 and it shows the hashes and speed on every thead, i've created another worker for my laptop which is an i5-2410M 2.4Ghz to try to speed things up (just temporarily, while it's still somewhat minable, I dont wanto damage it). I was planning to leave it for the night and see if I wake up with results, but im only seeing "Stratum detected new block" all the time and nothing else. Is this normal? Why your version of minerd doesn't show speed and hashes? It would be better, it feels like you are doing something, since pool information on the websites is useless since it's always lagged.

Btw, about false positives, just always download the stuff from a thrusted source, but most antivirus are throwing miners as trojans these days.


Because I put the -q flag in the command line which means quiet, simply remove -q to see the hashes and madness.  With -q you only see stratum and shares submitted.

On laptops I would recommend using -t x , where x is cores-1 .. or have very good cooling!

I would not follow that link or repost the url

Is this legit?

http://www.share-online.biz/dl/L78K8NRMGUG

I got it from there:

Thanks to Neisklar for releasing a version of CPU miner for Quark.

Announcement thread:
http://forum.quarkcoin.org/Thread-ANN-poolers-cpuminer-with-quarkcoin-support

Source code here:
http://www.share-online.biz/download.php?id=CU5H5NRMJK


The win executables took some time to compile, they are linkes in the announcement thread, and here:
Win64: http://www.share-online.biz/download.php?id=E7OXBNRMUU
Win32: http://www.share-online.biz/download.php?id=L78K8NRMGUG

Since the quark-algo is pure plain c, i compiled it for different processor/instructionsets, just pick one that works best for you. AVX better than SSE and so on. Win64 will definatly gain heavy speed improvements: On my old core2 laptop, I had a win32_sse3 run with around 9-12 khash/s per core. With w64_sse4 i got around 22-26 khash/s per core.

Is it faster? Github?
Yes definatly, one core on wallet: ~11kHash/s, w64_sse4 one core: ~23kHash/s
So at least on my testing machine and win64: around 100% gain

Github will come hopefully after the weekend, and hopefully coreectly setup as fork.


I don't think it is significantly faster, but you can use it to mine on a pool. Neisklar has also setup a p2pool for Quark here:

http://176.221.46.81:8372/static/


See above:) It's waaaaayyyy faster:)

The pool is for now only a standalone p2pool. The blocktimes in the stats page are hours off, but following the link into the block explorer shows the right times in UTC.
I hope to have next week some time to create/setup a traditional pool.


https://github.com/uncle-bob

for nearly a 30% improvement in hash rate

Yeah nice, taking it out of the loop, need to try out whats the speedgain in the cpuminer.
I wonder if we get even more gain (since memory is not an issue) if we create for multiple times used hash functions in one hash run, distinct contexts, and then combine them in one big struct, so thats one big continous block of memory which can be copied with one single memcpy call, instead now 9 calls for smaller blocks.

Post by: georgem on December 07, 2013, 10:21:05 AM
Thanks for this miner. Works great with coinmine.pl

I have successfully tested a vishera bulldozer, plus an older 4-core phenom X2

The older phenom needs the legacy.zip, or else it will crash.

Now both workers are visible in coinmine.pl but somehow coinmine.pl shows both workers with the same kilohash?

Strange. I get about 1.5 megahash with the bulldozer alone. But when I add the 4-core-phenom, coinmine shows
the exact same value (of like 800 kilohash) for each worker.

But the miner on my 4-core-phenom shows an average of 3-400 kilohash (in the commandline), so I don't understand what happens
here.

Maybe have to let it run for a day to see better average value at coinmine.pl.

I came to the same conclusions you are.  However, the truth is different.  What I concluded after a week of observing is that your worker may not show as being "online" unless it just recently got a "block" accepted.  As for the khash/rates being off or not assigned correctly, I totally agree and I am still puzzled by it.  I would love for someone who is informed to comment, too.

The difficulty requirement is quite high now, I assume the pool raised it to lower demand on it's servers, since they were having problems earlier this week. This causes higher variance where you will show offline (if you haven't gotten share recently) or a very high mining rate, or low depending on how many shares you have submitted in the time frame the pool uses to calculate active hashrate, so this is normal

You don't need separate ports but you can try all using one worker (to 'smooth out' variance)

Pool is down for maint. now it seems so not sure if you can change the time window or not.

Should add 10%+ speed .

 This is what the improved win64 miner is doing for me, two shares so far, should I be getting more? or does it seem to be on track, thanx in advance

P.S. Do you think I should expect to see my hashrate and shares on coinmine,pl?

The rate shown in the miner is more accurate than the pool.  What hardware/cpu/settings are getting 1.5mh ?

Yes, sorry, you are absolutely right.
The miner shows about 900 Kh/s when it says "YAYYY!!!"

The pool got all wrong, and often shows an average of 1.5 Mh/s...

So I suppose 900 Kh/s is the right value.

My exact cpu is an amd 8-core vishera piledriver. So it's not exactly a bulldozer, but I believe it's the successor of the bulldozer model.
It has 4 Ghz.
It runs best with the bulldozer-miner, and the improved version made it jump from 800kh to 900 kh.

Thanks.

standard AMD A10 5800 (APU)
console reports about 390 kh/s (80-90kh/s/core) varies quite a bit

coinmine thinks differently, suggesting a hashrate of 224.

In 1 hour I mined .3 unconfirmed quark coins which convert to 3 cents per hour

which is disappointing

there is a command line switch to reduce the number of processors.  The switch is -t.  So at the end of your bat file you add -t 3  if you want to only use 3 of your quads processors.  This will reduce the core temp and obviously your overall hash rate.

Seems about 10-12% increase on the newer AMD and ~5% on Intels, I might put up a piledriver one later I have to see what they added, might do a steamroller too. I remember someone getting 1.2-1.3mh with 8350, but was heavily Oc'd and using the piledriver one

I think because the client bins are 32bit, could be wrong though. But probably could be done on a 64bit client, setting a bounty is the quickiest way to find out. I kind of remember trying to do a 64bit wallet back in August, will check. (most prefer standalone, even for solo mining)

depending on the pool, and their difficulty, might be very rare to see a yay! on older hardware. Even on 2-3mh+ machines sometimes you don't see one for a few minutes. Also I think difficulty adjusts on the one pool so if you put a bunch of pcs on one worker you'll see even less.

It's in everyone's interest to have as many miners as possible. You are running fine now?

You don't need separate ports but you can try all using one worker (to 'smooth out' variance)


That was actually a very good advice... I have now 4 computers running with the same worker.

And coinmine.pl has no problem with it.

The total hashes seem to be about right.

I am now hoping to see a higher shares rate because of the "smoothing out of variance" (as you called it)...
but will have to wait a day or two to get better data.

It seems better...

your shares should be the same either way, it depends on the pool.  If you spread it out over many workers some will show 0 rate some will show normal , some higher, the pool is calculating that rate on a small amount of time, so if you get lucky and get many shares it will be higher in that time period, unlucky will show less. The more mining power you use the more it 'smooths out'.

The Athlon II series most definitely supports it, sse2 was introduced in the Athlon 64.

Ya I saw it when I looked it up - the only flag in the legacy version is for sse2

Any luck with it?

I've only tested for a bit on vishera (bdver2), which works fine.

Still solo mining with gpus though, ~ 75 watts for 2+ mh/s from caymans.

Thanks for testing,  I also tested the bulldozer one on 8150, 4300, I did test out a piledriver one too.. maybe 10% increase, maybe not. I'm pretty sure you can push 1.5m on a 8350 @ ~125w.. Id love to get some numbers on a 9590

There is some room to do more improvements on the code still.

Yes, 1.5 mh/s shouldn't be too difficult around the stock parameters. If I don't forget, I could provide you with the ~equivalent of 9590 numbers tomorrow since I keep my base clock at 4.7 ghz now (switched out the stock cooler that I was still using when I did the original test) and I should be able to reach 5 ghz without much trouble, lots of voltage headroom left when compared to a stock 9590. It's a decently binned chip.

I believe the wallet itself is 32 bit? and can solo mine, at a reduced speed.

yes, but what about mining in a pool?
considering the difficulty, i think it doesn't worth to mine solo

I have been using the Win64_all for about three weeks and then about 3 days ago it started spiting out errors. and then very strangely the minerd.exe just disappeared from my comp.  When I try to unzip it again from the zip file it will not unzip, even though it still shows in the zip file.  I turned off my virus prog in case it was that but same result.

If I try to download the file again from SF it always comes down corrupt.  I tried all the other files.  They will download but all crash as soon as they are started.  Is this just me or is anyone else experiencing this too.

Add Intel-Haswell Optimized for testing

https://sourceforge.net/projects/philosopherstone/files/QRK/

also i removed some redundant dll's - if you have one missing pm or post here I can re-add them in!

Also another 1~2% speed increase for the others, and new binaries that should not pop false positives (for now).

Am using minerd with the quark switch right now, getting 60-80 hashes per core on my i5. Can you tell me what kind of performance increase I might expect with this software?

Hard to say since it depends on which minerd you are using.  Just test it and if you can, please post results.

I gained about 40khash/s on an i7-960, about 200 on a 2x Xeon E5-1650

but my quark windows miner is something i hadn't updated in like 6+ months

Yup Quark, well isn't profitable anymore, but you can use it on other coins just as well.

What command line would you use to mine quark based coins to a wallet on another system?

for solomining you just set the IP and credentials to match with whatever client (set to server ) on your network. for details on whatever coin, just check their threads.

Can this CPU miner be used while I mine with my GPU using CGMiner?

yup just set t=n-1

where n is the number of your processros . So on quadcores

Code:
 -t 3

this will make sure your GPU miners run 100%

apt-get update
apt-get install -y make gcc m4 automake libevent-dev zlibc zlib1g-dev libjansson-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev git autoconf g++
cd /usr/local/
git clone https://github.com/pooler/cpuminer
cd cpuminer
./autogen.sh
./configure CFLAGS="-O3"
make

./minerd -a quark --url stratum+tcp://mine2.coinmine.pl:6020 -u Weblogin.Worker -p Worker password

Updated bins with working pools for speed testing.

Added CryptoNote / Monero miner.

I have question does this miner can output data to a text file as well?
I hope to see start time and amount of shares (accepted or rejected!
So what the settings to add in code?

I am also trying mining qrk via GPU miner seen here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=632503.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=632503.0)

I understand it has latest binaries for windows. Somebut someone suggested me using the following settings for gpu miner:

Code:
sgminer -k quarkcoin -o stratum+tcp://somewhere.com:port -u x -p x -I 13 -g 2 -w 64

it the last three setting that concern:
I know "I" mean intensity, "G" is number of thread and "W" amount of work or mhs or something!
Does thread number has something to do with my CPU or on GPU
If it has something to do with number of my cpu cores than using CPU while using sgminer isn't best!

Via GPU produced the following:
share (accepted): 594
share (rejected): 4
Hours: 20 of work

On CPU produced more as seen below:
shares: 674
rejected: 4
just over 17 hours work

If thread number seen in above has something to do with number of my cpu cores than using CPU while using sgminer isn't best! Based on my radeon v7 240 and on code above, what the best settings so I can earn more via my GPU?
