Community Call for Claymore Zcash GPU Miner Development

[d57heinz]

Ok I did some testing.. Eth is slow but hey it's some extra coins at only a cost of 2-3 Sol/s on my system.

ZCash mining 50 Sol/s
Eth mining 60 MH/s

Code:

nheqminer_suprnova.exe -u <-ewal worker.name> -p <password> -t 4 -od 0 1 2

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool coinotron.com:3344 <-ewal worker.name> -esm 2 -epsw <password> -allpools 1 -ethi 0,0,0

With Dual mining 47-48 Sol/s  17 MH/s

Small hit with Sol/s but not bad and getting some mining power on Ethereum.  So once Claymore releases his optimized version I think we will definitely get better results as currently I have two applications running to do the same thing which will make some performance hit there.

Use genoil 4.1 or 4.2 and claymore miner;)

when i try this I get 0sol and 0h/s

I think someone is ddosing bct forum servers for preventin g claymore's miner release.lol

yea i think so too

lets see if it drops today

[Tbone5660]

Come on with the good stuff Claymore!!!

[doktor83]

claymore just joked when he said he is making a miner

[Eyedol-X]

Today I tried existing miners, I don't like their stability and speed.
Ok, I will release first version of my ZCash miner very soon. AMD only, at least for now.

Awesome!

[forzendiablo]

so 3 days passed and no miner. maybe claymore will not release but mine himself?

still good - he deserves it.

Perfection takes time.

releasing claymore's zcash miner will tremendously increase his hashrate (coming from the "fee"), it is more beneficial to him if he release the miner rather than use it himself.

come on Claymore, save me from sleep deprivation with these unstable miners LOL

I know, have to restart every 10 minutes or so....

Put it on a loop using a BAT file.

Was reading about that in the forums, will check it out.

thanks.

Hi,
If you want you can use my simplemining.net OS which doest that resetting for you

It restarts miner if detects 2 states in mining console window.
- at least 3 lines of "stale shares" or "crashed "
- more than 8 "found shares" but less than 4 "accespted shares"

#!/bin/bash
export DISPLAY=:0
MINER=`cat /tmp/miner | grep "Stale share \| crashed" | wc -l`

    if [ $MINER -ge 3 ]
    then
    echo "Miner error, restarting miner"
    bash /root/start.sh
#    sudo dmesg -c
    fi

shares_found=`cat /tmp/miner | grep "found share" | wc -l`
shares_accepted=`cat /tmp/miner | grep "Share accepted" | wc -l`
echo $shares_found
    if [ $shares_found -gt 8 ] && [ $shares_accepted -lt 4 ]
    then
    echo "Miner error, restarting miner"
    bash /root/start.sh
#    sudo dmesg -c
    fi

What cards do you use? What is your system configuration and driver?

thanks for the heads up....i'm gonna have a nice loooong sleep later, just waiting for sleepiness to kick in again

zcashclient works for me, pretty stable on my 280x's run for hours and hours (to be safe i loop it at 2hrs), my .bat loops perfectly .. genoil miner for me is too unstable the program error (doesn't run after the loop) and the 0 sols errors kinda fucks up the looping processes.

[forzendiablo]

i bet claymore was paid to not release this

[arielbit]

i bet claymore was paid to not release this

that's a possibility..he was like the chuck norris of miner developers. the others made miners already and he was, like missing the action.

[molitar]

I have a batch file that reads this.

Code:

@echo on
taskkill /f /im genoil.exe
timeout /t 2
genoil.exe -c zec.suprnova.cc:2142 -u miner.name -p password -P 0 -g 0 1 2

I than put this in my task scheduler to run this batch file every 10 minutes.  Damn it's doing really good. Not only that if you tell it to run even when not logged in the console window is hidden.  I than setup a trigger for startup and login.  This way if someone does reboot my system than it will start back up.
