Hi everyone! i few days ago I installed the webchain miner in my computer but every time I begin mining my computer gets extremely slow. how can i configure it to not make so slow my computer. I have 4gb ram and a dual core 2.0.
There are several ways:
1. Add /BELOWNORMAL in your command line. This will prioritise the miner lower than the rest of your running programs.
2. OPen config.json (in your miner's folder) with notepad and find:
"cpu-priority": null, // set process priority (0 idle, 2 normal to 5 highest)
set it to 1 and try again
3. change the number of threads in the same json.config file:
"threads": 2, // number of miner threads
try with 2, 3, 4 and if it is slow again, set it to 1
whotheff thanks for your help! I tried the second and last option that you gave me and my computer is not getting frozen as before. Thanks a lot!
