in generate, what more important? gpu threads or ram in xmx (i mean java -Xmx2000m)
with -Xmx2000m you just set the upper Limit. If you dont get any errors this limit is set high enough. The more CPU threads you use the faster you can generate the plot files. But no matter how many threads you use - you end up with the same file. Higher stagger sizes (=more memory usage) produce "better" plot files. They are faster to read, use less disk seeks.If you have the RAM, go for 8191.

tell me pls. i run generate with java -Xmx1000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate my_account_id 1048576 1348576 1000 4
But i see in window Writing from nonce 1493576 Generating from nonce: 1494576
wtf? O.o
All OK. You generate all the way from 1048576 to (1048576 + 1348576) with this command

dev, you can send 1 coin to save my wallet? thank you BURST-7FA6-2PRQ-EVGM-2QB4F
Ive sent you 1 coin

That means,I can use plot of 0 to 6000000 nounces on one pc,and plot of 6000000 to 12000000 nounces on another with seam password,but if I make two plots with 0 to 6000000 nounces and seam password on separate PC's it is only waste of space and time?
Correct

If I've 2 separate HDD, can I plot in each one starting from position 0? Or are they overlapping? I mean, 2 separate HDD, can overlap? I'm using a miner for each HDD
yes, they are overlapped. use different nounces or different wallets.I tested it that before and lost one day in generating plots... Good, it's a week that I'm wasting about 50% of my space.. And what if: Number of nonces (1600000) is not a multiple of stagger size (8191)? Because I'm mining and finding block, so does it affect mining? And if I use seam nounces on two separate PC's,they will not overlapping?Or this will affect mining? If you are working on two different wallet, with two password there is no problem, they will not overlap, but if you are using the same password on each PC for generate the plot, they will overlap! (Correct me if I'm wrong) I hope you're wrong, because if so, then that means I have a few overlapping... But to me it doesn't make sense for a completely separate computer, to be able to have overlapping nonces with a completely different computer... Is there some way to tell if one computer is overlapping another?? I guess I could just watch the miner, and if the numbers are the same and it's doing the same stuff, then I guess that would be a way to find out. If both computers use the same key they will also produce the same results (deadline) for blocks. You are then competing with yourself - and lowering your chances.

> Number of nonces (1600000) is not a multiple of stagger size (8191)? Just ignore it, its just a few MB's that are wasted. > And if I use seam nounces on two separate PC's,they will not overlapping?Or this will affect mining? They do overlap! You need to use seperate ranges. If you are working on two different wallet, with two password there is no problem, they will not overlap, but if you are using the same password on each PC for generate the plot, they will overlap! You are correct. Anyway I dont get the point why everyone is trying to pack their ranges as close together as possible. You have 2^64 to choose from, and block finding changes are equal for all of them. So why not start the next one at 10M? 1G? 10G?

Just a quick question, the whole blockchain is being re-indexed again. Is this normal?
Happened here, too. Its working perfectly now.

I need to enable my Bitcoin & Litecoin-wiki accounts but dont have any at hand.
1k burst for 0.001 BTC & 0.1 LTC someone? PM please
Thanks

I have make this conf, but i think it's not good! Find only 4 in 4 days?
Can someone tell me if my conf is good or not?
Thanks
With my laptop and 571GB found 3 in 4 days, so i think it's good! Difficulty is rising! If you want to see if they overlap, go to https://bchain.info/BURST/tools/overlap and paste the plots name! wich is the better: the bigger or lower disk seeks per Scoop?? Lower! If you run it off an SSD this dosnt matter, if you use HDDs its the lower the better.

Thanks, you sure that can't affect mining?
It does, but only to a minor extent. 8190 overlapping nonces are ~2GB of space wasted. Thats all. Thanks, i can keep that file : 8130010810251XXXX_899654_1015685_8191: Number of nonces (1015685) is not a multiple of stagger size (8191) or i delete it?

Its just a few nonces at the end that are wasted space. You can view it like this: Every nonce has a deadline for every block. The miner has to find the smallest one and submit it. In your case it first found 2611592, submitted it and kept searching. Later it found 1863506. Your miner runs perfectly

Stay with your plots. Its just a few nonces that overlap.

how to now from a plot file size wich nonce was last one ?
- Plots dont need to be in order - Just pick a nonce big enough so they dont overlap Thanks! ps bigger then 10.000.000 will be ok ? Sure! 64 bits to use.

so ..,asic still can be produced to mine this coin?
The algorithm takes quite a lot of memory, 256kb per thread, so its from the ASIC perspective closer to Litecoin/Scrypt than to Bitcoin. The Scrypt miners took years to get where they are now, rough estimate: factor 100 (same power consumption). So thats 3.5TB with 200W of power in BURST. i wonder whether the passphrase ppl are using has any baring on the luck ppl are experiencing. i for one used lastpass to generate a 100 character passphrase consisting of only characters that look like random combination of words joined together.
I can assure you: The passphrase has nothing to do with your chances of finding a block. About the GPU issue: I've just finished an OpenCL-Test-Implementation. On an R280X it takes ~22s for 10k nonces, assuming the final hashes are pre-calculated. With a block time of 5 minutes that GPU equals ~35GB of disk space while consuming 200W of power. No real alternative. your code would be perfect to generate the plotfiles but i am not aware if java supports opencl in a way it is useful. http://www.jocl.org/This library offers Java-Bindings for OpenCL that are very similar to the original OpenCL API. The functions are provided as static methods, and semantics and signatures of these methods have been kept consistent with the original library functions, except for the language-specific limitations of Java. The OpenCL API may be very verbose at some points, and this is not hidden or simplified, but simply offered by JOCL as-it-is. Why even use Java? It'll be a small C tool that generates exactly the same files. But - its still far from being done.

Neat! "Get Paid To Use Your HDD" .. sounds a little dubious how about "Energy efficient mining using your HDD"?

Please be sure your using the password from your passphrase.txt file and NOT the password.txt file!
I've done all the steps to get this running right, that's not a step I missed on. Zero blocks still and can't get a deadline below 1500, averaging 10k~150k....I might just do everything all over again and just make a single plot with all 3 500GB drives spanned/raid0 together to see if that helps, recreate the plot. Its quite difficult to find a block now. I have 6TB of plots and more than 14 hours passed between the last 2 blocks. My bet is: You just had bad luck.

This is not funny. I have 3 computers mining this crap (1TB HDD, 500GB HDD & 250 GB HDD). No coins yet. Waste of time, energy and harddrive life. I'm giving it until 12pm EST Saturday. After that, this coin is worthless. If a coin cant be mined by "normal" folks, then there will be no place for this coin.
We won't miss you
