AHashPoolPlus vs BlazePool Test using 72 GPU FARM (36 GPUs per Pool)

Six Rigs (Miner1-6)  : 6 x 1070ti (85%, +100 Core, +500 Mem)
Six Rigs (Miner7-12): 6 x 1070ti (85%, +100 Core, +500 Mem)

Time Period 2/12 7:30am to 2/14 7:30am
Allowed Pools to Settle after stopping miners
Algorithm: phi,skein,x17,Nist5,neoscrypt,blake2s
ActiveMinerGainPct 5
Interval 60


AHashPoolPlus generated : 0.021524928 ($198.78 USD)
BlazePool generated        : 0.016864128 ($155.74 USD)

Sorry Blazepool you lost this round.  

Seeing good results on ahashpoolplus batch as well with 6 x 1070 rig, actually seems to make more then my 6 x 1080 ti Rig on blazepool at the moment. Will switch it to ahashpoolplus once payout is reached.

Thanks for the feedback on using ahashpoolplus.
Interested to know if you see improvements in switching rate (less than current_estimate and more than Actual24hr) and earnings (more).

There should be more of the same coming for other pools. Just need to find the time to work on it...

All of a sudden my 2.4.1 version which was working perfectly started failing and throwing errors. Running on ahashpool...

Anyone else see this issue? Looks like maybe the API call was getting an unexpected response. Switched back to 2.3 and its fine.

Delete all the pool stats (keep the ccminerxxxxxxx files) in STATS folder will fix the problem.

hey millsys - do you know why this happens? it keeps happening... just curious

NemosMiner-v2.4.2

added: Full MiningPoolHubStats Support thanks to: @miningpoolhubstats

added Ethash Algo Support:
miner: Claymore latest v11.0
supported pools: nicehash,miningpoolhub

new pools added: zergpool,minemoney.co,blazepool
(blazepool & zergpool looks very promising)

Enable XMRig: for cryptonight (nicehash,miningpoolhub)

Subtract MinerDev fee and pool fee from Profit Calculation

Added functionality:

prerun feature

Ability to run a batch prior switching to a specific algo. For example, can be used to set OC via nvidiaInspector Simply create a file named .bat in prerun folder If .bat does not exist, will try to launch prerun/default.bat

ahashpoolplus

Added ahashpoolplus as a pool. Simply use -PoolName ahashpoolplus in start.bat Uses calculations based on 24hractual and currentestimate ahashpool prices to get more realistic estimate. Includes some trust index based on past 1hr currentestimate variation from 24hr. This shows less switching than following Current Estimate and more switching that following the 24hr Actual. AND is NOT sensible to spikes. Better profitability on our rigs. Test and share the results on yours. Only for ahashpool. Working on expanding the feature to other pools.

Algo switching log

Added simple algo switching log in csv. switching.log file found in Logs folder. Can be easily imported in excel as csv file. include wallet so donation rounds can be clearly identified as well

Best Regards
Nemo

killer release, Nemo!! awesome new features!! Looking forward to trying it!

[sundownz]

I am having an intermittent issue that I've never had before -- on the latest nemo / latest miner files occasionally "lyra2z" will hang up with a ccminer error. If I just go click "okay" NEMO will resume as normal. But that system will simply idle until I arrive and click OKAY.

Any fix for that ?

Start gpedit.msc.

Any ETA on having this for ZPOOL ?

I wanted to try zpool again, but srl ??

Any fix?

The infamous "ccminer has stopped working" error  is most elegantly solved by running a .reg file(s) found here:
https://www.raymond.cc/blog/disable-program-has-stopped-working-error-dialog-in-windows-server-2008/

BTW, nice to see Nemos miner becoming more and more intelligent.
And thanks to all you guys contributing  profitability findings!
I myself use Awesome Miner to find the most profitable coins/pools.
Ever since Nicehash came back and killed Neoscrypt profitability (again),  X17 on ahashpool was usually most profitable, so I am back to single algo mining just like with equihash/ZEC a year ago
Single algo mining: slightly less profit, much more stable rigs. I

Ugh, these results tempt me so much to go back to AHP, but I don't know if I can after my unpleasant experience with it during the dip.

Thanks for the testing nonetheless.

EDIT: Nvm, turns out I didn't bother reading and thought it was 24h when it was really 48h.

Any ETA on having this for ZPOOL ?

I've been using it on Zpool the last few days with no issue. In fact, I was doing a comparison between NemosMiner/Zpool vs. NiceHash (spoiler - NiceHash won; see this post here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1751272.msg30341376#msg30341376).

In fact, every single comparison I've done between NiceHash and a multi-algo, auto-switching pool - always using NemosMiner - has ended with NiceHash winning. As a result, I've concluded that it's just not worth trying to beat NiceHash at its own game. YMMV, etc. and so on.

[cryptomoblo]

Today I noticed again that profits didnt get refreshed by nemosminer. I could see last time it was refreshed was 24 hours ago. I have noticed this before. Anyone else have seen this behavior before?

Without refreshing the profit stats nemosminer was constantly mining the same algo. I had to restart nemosminer to get correct profit statistics again.

[MagicSmoker]

In order reach the minimum balance on Zpool in a reasonable time I copied my existing NemosMiner installation on to my other GTX 1080 rig. Everything is running smoothly and since both rigs are more or less the same my existing benchmarks and algos should work fine. I changed the refresh interval to 300 seconds on both setups and started them within a few minutes of each other so API checks aren't exactly in sync, but they aren't, say, 10 minutes apart.

What's really strange is that they have not been mining the same algo, nor even showing the same ordering of profitability. And I am not just talking about 1 or 2 switched places, I mean the profitability estimates are way, way different. For example, on rig 1 the first 5 algos listed are Skein, Tribus, HSR, Skunk & Phi, while on rig 2 the order is Lyra2RE2, Skunk, Phi, HSR, Tribus.

It's almost like the profit switching script is randomly guessing?!?

[Lubrifiant]

somebody tried a comparison between miningpoolhub and zergpool/ahash/blaze/whatever ?

equihash is available on MPH, interesting algo for nvidia cards

Get rid of Lyra2RE2, Skunk, HSR, Tribus they are terrible...

Use phi,skein,x17,Nist5,neoscrypt,blake2s

If you want 10-20% more profit use ahashpoolplus

All the time, look a few pages back, ahashpoolplus beat blaze for a 48 hour test, two sets of identical 6 rigs (36 gpus per farm)

On 72 GPU farm (all 1070ti cards running at 80-85% power, +80 to +100 GPU, +400 to +500 MEM) I average 0.02 BTC daily on ahashpoolplus, so thats 0.00166666666667 BTC per 6 card rig per day.  You can use this to compare what you have been getting the last few days from your setup.

Hmm, yes, you mentioned pruning the algo list before when timetravel got stuck during benchmarking, but after thinking about it some more I couldn't see the reasoning behind removing any algo from the list as long as the pool supports it, the algo hasn't been "ASIC'ed", the pool uses the Proportional payout scheme (so you don't get screwed if no blocks are found) and the pool auto-converts everything to BTC. Maybe skunk or tribus or timetravel suck right now, but maybe they won't in the future. And I know for sure that Lyra2RE2 has good days because I keep my eye on a couple of coins that use that algo.

I'm just about to install the newest version - 2.4.2 - so this would be as good a time as any to do some pruning, but I don't want to shoot myself in the foot here.

You can't shoot yourself in the foot for picking the top 6 algos and mining those exclusively.  Make sure to use the new ahashpoolplus, its a better way to mine
