Trying to connect to MiningRigRentals and this is all I get:

Optiminer currently does not support the reconnect command. Therefore it does not work with miningrigrentals.com, sorry!

Oh well, thank you optiminer . . .

Hello! When will the new release? In the new release will increase in speed? I really liked your miner is better than the Claymore

where to find the log file?

[cracker666]

optiminer is faster than claymore geting 25h/s more

Just tried 1.3.2, and noticed there is no GCN asm kernels for 1.0 devices (i.e. Tahiti, Pitcairn).  They have 64KB GDS just like the newer devices, and the ISA is only slightly different.  On Tonga performance is pretty good at around 200sol/s, though even there I think there's room for a bit more improvement (5-10%).

where to find the log file?

To generate a log file, launch the miner with

Code:

-l <logfilename>

Bonus answer:

If you want a time-stamped formatted log file kinda like CM, use something like this:

Code:

 -l %DATE:~-4%-%DATE:~4,2%-%DATE:~7,2%@%TIME:~0,2%-%TIME:~3,2%-%TIME:~6,2%_log.txt

then your log files will appear like:  2017-01-15@12-41-58_log.txt  in a YYYY, MM, DD @ HH, MM, SS format.


I like to keep the formatting of the example batch file, so I assign the log file to a variable earlier on:

Code:

SET LOGFILE=%DATE:~-4%-%DATE:~4,2%-%DATE:~7,2%@%TIME:~0,2%-%TIME:~3,2%-%TIME:~6,2%_log.txt

this way I can keep the actual launch command line easier to read similar to:

Code:

optiminer  -s %POOL% -u %USER% -p %PASSWORD% -l %LOGFILE%

Could you please add support for coinotron.com?

Version 1.4.0 Released!

https://github.com/Optiminer/OptiminerZcash#optiminerzzcash

[1.4.0] Experimental asm support for GCN 1 devices. Enable with '--experimental-kernel'
[1.4.0] 1-2% increase in hash speed.
[1.4.0] Fix race condition that could lead to invalid solutions.

www.coinotron.com does not correctly implement the zcash stratum protocol, they use "mining.set_difficulty" instead of "mining.set_target" as described on
https://github.com/str4d/zips/blob/23d74b0373c824dd51c7854c0e3ea22489ba1b76/drafts/str4d-stratum/draft1.rst#miningset_target

Best to complain directly with them.

Every other miner works, only opt not!

HI, do you have a bat config sample that can setup the fan speed and also can i mine zcl using this miner? Im using RX 480 8gb stack rom. Hope that someone will guide me on this..  Thanks

excelent job

[charles2k]

with experimental kernel I have got message: [error] Found solution index out of range: 323309969
with generic kernel ok
(rig with MSI 270X 2G /280X 3G mix)

Great work Optiminer  
is there anyone here have tonga to share with me hashrate
i got between 175 Sol/s and 199 Sol/s for each

I can confirm the speed increase.
By the way, when it comes to stability, I just wanted to point out that I ran version 1.3.0 from the moment it's been released until 30min ago when I switched to version 1.4.0 without a single crash on my rigs. That's what I would call pretty stable. Let's hope version 1.4.0 is just as good !
Thanks opti.

good job guy... really

RX480 stock dissy

281s-283s with --experimental-kernel

and now... all pc to linux...

[cleverserge]

@optiminer
Speed is great (about 2200 Sol/s on 6xR9 390)but v1.4.0 is unstable on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit/Catalyst 15.12. And there are no fan/temperature stats. How to control it? Claymore miner disable/reduce intesity when overheating. How does it work in your miner?

UPD1
Everytime the miner hangs on GPU1
[2017-01-17 15:16:35.564] [error] GPU1 has not produced any solution in last 30! Executing "./watchdog-cmd.sh"
So I can only guess what is the reason. If there would be the data about temperature and fan speed it will be great. But now I'm backing to Claymore with 100 Sol/s per rig less

UPD2.
It seems to be a problem with the card itself. Set intesity to 1 for it and 1+ hour it is stable. Will see... 

[wacko]

Just finished reading the whole topic, but still couldn't find what I was looking for. It's said that hashrate in Linux is faster for newer cards, but how much faster? What are the hashrates for RX 470 4GB and RX 480 8GB in Linux and Windows? For Linux noobs like myself it'll take the whole day to read all the guides out there and setup a Linux system so it would be nice to know what kind of difference in hashrate is there before spending all that time and effort.
