1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Bminer: a fast Equihash miner for CUDA GPUs (5.3.0) on: February 10, 2018, 10:55:43 AM
Changing from EWBF to DSTM increased average Sols from 520 to 534. Number of shares increased from 167 to 180 over a 40 minute test period on both. I then tried Bminer. For another 40 minute test, sols increased to 550, however the number of shares reduced to 147. There were 0 rejected shares on all 3 tests and same 1070ti, same overclock, same pool and exactly 40 min.

Very impressive higher sols with Bminer but how come the number of shares would be less than EWBF and DSTM?

I can confirm the fact that the indicators of the miner and the pool do not match.
For the purity of the experiment, I disabled the author's commission on Bminer by specifying the option "-nofee".
8 ASUS GeForce GTX1070 8192Mb DUAL (DUAL-GTX1070-8G) video cards show the value 3930 Sol in the miner, and on zcash.flypool.org 3520 Sol.
The difference is 410 Sol. The Bminer test lasted 30 days. A total of 64 video adapters participated in the test.
On average, for 30 days Bminer showed a better result than EWBF by 0.3%. In EWBF, the commission was disabled by the option "--fee 0".
Perhaps Bminer will show better results on video cards nvidia 1060 or nvidia 1050 Ti, but for nvida 1070 the difference is very insignificant only 0.3%
I want to clarify that on all video cards PowerLimit has been downgraded.
The average value on the core was 925 mV.

P.S.
A big plus is that you can write logs to a file. Previously, Bminer did not have such an opportunity.
I hope that the author will correct the code of the miner so that the indicators on the screen and in the pool are the same. Because of different indicators, a sense of deception arises.

Perhaps someone this information will be useful. Smiley
