XHV uses a modified Heavy algo.
Now Cast works very well with Heavy algo.
On my rigs:
1500Hs on Vega 64,
1430Hs on Vega 56,
890/910Hs on RX580 Gygabite hynix memory
Gandalph the developer, has a twitter account where he gives updates and some tips on tweaking performance or problem solving.
So far so good.
The problem of Cast XMR is that there's no way to monitor the hashrate... Do you know if there's any solution that we can combine with CAST XMR to monitor that? Thanks!
On the dev site there is the following setting. It exist since version 7, now they are on 9.06.
Cast XMR Version 0.7 (2017/11/29)
network and job status added to current statistics
remote access to get current status at
http://127.0.0.1:7777 in JSON format (enable with --remoteaccess)
But I normally use Chrome Remote Desktop, and I will check directly from the miner window, also from a smartphone. I can restart, change pool wallet what ever I want to do from the smartphone as well as if i was on my desktop.
In my personal case, I always had very stable rates even for a few days in a raw without restarting. I know some people experience rates drop.
Since on most rigs, users have the same hardware and use similar settings, I assume it may be some motherboards settings, which is most of the times the main variable.
The only issue I had recently (some other users as well) was using the -ratewatchdog command, which is supposed to mitigate HS rate drops, by restarting the kernel of the affected GPU.
In my case it was doing exactly the opposite: crawling the rate of a few cards down to 60hs. But as since I normally did not experienceany rate drop, I just removed and the cards never drop rate. At the moment on version 9.06 I amd doing 1490hs on the Vega 56, and 1550hs on the 64.
Neither Stak or SBR reach the same HS rate and stability on my rigs and PC.
With CAST I also get an higher HS rate at the pool than what my miner recorded HS rate, due to the -fastjobswitch command (it drops obsolete job and switch to a new one, therefore not wasting time), a feature that is not available on STAK or SBR.
You should give it a try.
Cheers.
Hello Alexander, I would like to ask you about mining XHV by using castxmr. I have a 6 Vega64 rig and i am mining XMR and XTL using Castxmr and its working ok (1950h/s per card). but when i try to use the same settings to mine XHV, my hashrate is only about 1200-1350h/s per card, I am using the latest AMD driver (not blockchain), could you share your detail settings and does it have any affect if turning on the HBCC? (currently i didn't use wattman and i use overdriveNTool for instead), thank you and happy mining.
