Yeh mine dropped aswell
ok I will make that memory access scheme configurable... Wait for a second, I decided to try out x86 instead of x64 and it seems to be almost as fast as x64 used to be before your revert. Figured that might be interesting to note. |

Scrypt has always been faster on x86 for me since I ever compiled cudaMiner.

Not scrypt, scrypt-jane. Though it has always been faster on x64 with the latest change it's faster on x86. |

oops, mining MRC with -C 2 using the Z kernel is not validating for me. Some problem
in the kernel it appears... Nothing to do with yesterday's commit, as I haven't touched
that kernel lately...
Strictly speaking the Z kernel shouldn't need support for any -C flags, as a Compute 3.5
device is capable of running any read access through the texture cache...
With -a=scrypt-jane:MRC -H 2 -C 0 -l Z60x24 I get up to 1100 kHash/s per GTX 780Ti.
EDIT: hmmm, two out of 3 cards hit 90 deg C and ran into thermal throttling.

erm apart from 2 solo mined blocks, and a 5.05 million MRC donation there was not much of a return. I can call myself a Micro-Millionaire now at least. I only started throwing massive power at a pool just now. Will check my returns in 24h. Christian |

hey, I think I just spotted a bathrobe on easy-mining.net Yeah, and I brought you some luck, you found 2 blocks  Was just curious what is the pool giving me as average coins/day for my hashrate. About 1.5 blocks/day. Impressive hashrate you're packing! |

Yeah, I stayed up just so I can reconfigure and get back to shoving.
Hope to see some more shiny blocks after work tomorrow.

One thing that sucks about N-factor changes is that the actual difficulty adjustment only takes place later (e.g in 615 blocks from now).. which means that the next 615 blocks will take 64 seconds to find - and not 32 as intended. Meh. A good coin design could automatically downscale the difficulty at each N-factor change. Also there is no good reason why the scrypt N parameter always has to grow in powers of 2 (apart from the tiny detail that in the code you can occasionally write &(N-1) instead of %N which is a tiny bit faster. |

I suggested this for YAC quite some time ago - idea was denounced by Windmaster when he finally gave up the dev reigns. In reality, the diff on YAC adjusts quick enough that it's only painful for a couple days, but I'm definitely with you on that. |

Would you recommend trying the Z kernel on my 780 to try it christian? For yacoin at the moment that is
I just read this over at multipool
"Bitcointalk admins are discussing the removal of all alt crypto forums."
Would this effect this forum topic?

Not really no. My yacoin wallet has over 20. It just means your mined blocks are checked quicker and you get updates from the chain faster
