[HODL] Bounty for CPU Miner - Now at Ħ4000

[Fuzzbawls]

Are there any 32-bit CPUs with on-chip AES-NI?

[Epsylon3]

no, but there are (not-so-)old OS

Your machine doesn't have AES-NI.

Is there a way to use this miner in my machine?

Greetings. I realize the prize has been taken but I have something that may be of interest.

I have been developping an optimized CPU miner for a couple of months (see sig) and have
now implemented hodl support. My hashrate on a i7-6700K is around 400 H/s. This seems to be
quite a bit better than some others I've seen. It will be available in v3.1.10 very soon.

It will only be available as source compileable in Linux. I know there is a lot of demand for Windows
but that's not my thing. Anyone is free to grab the source and try to get it working for Win.

I'm not doing this for money but if my improvements are significant it might be worth something.
There could also be motivation for someone else to get it working on Windows.

Edit: Also with without AES_NI

No; I didn't ass support for non-AES-NI, since it's kind of pointless to mine without it.

Just to be sure, I'm using an i7-960 cpu quadcore. Anyone know for sure that cpu has no AES-NI?

Thanks in advance.

[Epsylon3]

dont waste your time i see no difference
joblo one maybe but where is the code ?

Still a little early to set it in stone, but getting somewhere between 80%-100% increase in speed (60-70 v 120-140) on my fx8350. Wolf, you are a fiend my friend. Good work as always.

[edit 1] after a bit now cooking its settled down to ~100

I have an 8320 and was doing 120 (settled) with the wallet miner, slightly modified; 100 before modifications.
I guess it isn't optimised for AMD but just for Intel.

You see no difference? What CPU?

i7 4770K ... 160H/s like the previous one ?

[qqqq]

Do your miner can find any blocks in solo ? Cause since i start tested it always orphans with total of 700 H\s
Actually i tryed it earlier and waiste 3-4 days with same results.

I got this in logs

Code:

[2016-04-25 13:07:18] accepted: 0/1 (0.00%), 171.26 hash/s (booooo)
[2016-04-27 07:06:08] accepted: 0/2 (0.00%), 173.64 hash/s (booooo)

Could you comment this ?

Great!! Now in windows and with the best cpuminer (yeah.. w0lf ) i have about 240 with i7 4790k.. goog job!
