Hello, i`ve installed the 2 versions of ccminer (wolf and lucas jones), but is way too slow compared to minergate, less than half of the speed.

I have a 16 core Xeon server, but i don`t even get 300 H/s. With Minergate i go at about 750 H/s

Any ideas on what i am doing wrong with ccminer? or what should i do to improve the speed?

Thank you

I believe you are talking about CryptoNight algorithm for CPUs. Well in this case I guess you shouldn't be using "ccminer", more likely "cpuminer" which can be found in MinerGate's website to download: https://es.minergate.com/altminers/cpuminer-multi-wolf

You are right... i`ve mistaken the names  Undecided , i am using cpu miner multi... i just changed the thread title

But the problem comes when i mine without a desktop or GUI.

When using the minergate GUI app, it mines more than 2 times the speed of the console, using cpu miner multi.

Perhaps there are parameters i should set when i launch the cpuminer to improve the speed?

There are other faster miners available than cpuminer-multi. They aren't difficult to find.

Thank you joblo, i am currently using your miner, and is about 3% faster than the others i tested. On many workers makes a good difference Smiley
