After the fork, as previously said, the mining algorithm has been changed and the new hash rates are lower on the new algo (for everyone).
Do not be afraid of smaller H/s, it brings the same results as it did before the fork with higher H/s.

If you haven't updated your miner, keep  in mind your work will be rejected by the pool and you will not be able to earn ARO.

My recommendation as a miner is to use Dan's java miner!

Not used a java miner before, where can i locate instructions to use it?

thanks!

Which one of those is the best to download and what are the differences?

The short answer -- the one that fits what your hardware can use.

Most AMD hardware has at least AVX support; some, AVX2.

Most recent Intel Hardware has AVX2 support; some has AVX512f -- use it if yours does.

Check with your CPU manufacturer (Intel Ark for instance shows all hardware features for each Intel CPU) to see which extensions you can use.

All hardware should be able to run the generic. Some older hardware with AVX support might run faster using "generic" -- the plain arionum-miner-java.exe which is for any Windows system.

Please note that there is a hard requirement for 64bit JRE for all versions.


As to what is better -- AVX is a kind of vector operation extension. AVX2 doubles the size of the vectors useable. AVX512f as used in this lib, doubles the size of the vector again. Each _can_ represent about 20% speedboost; although sometimes due to other hardware optimizations AVX isn't faster then Generic build.

Thanks for a good explanation!

Having some issues though trying to run it with more than 4 hashers.
Trying to run with 7 hashers gives me the following issue:

You have 8 processors vs. 7 hashers.

Also puts my hashrate at around 5.9 with the i7 7700k which should apparently produce 8-11 H/s.

Any idea how to fix this?

Is there any change in the block spacing, because I see from block 11345 to 11355 only 24s/32s/68s/12s/50s/59s/78s/etc

[AroDev]

@kiddo It's still on 4 minutes, just a growing number of miners and the difficulty takes longer to adjust.

[ibinsad]

Any Nvidia miner?

How do I know whether I am successfully mining or not?

Search for your address on aropool.com to see if you're getting shares and arionum.info (or your wallet) to see if you're receiving payments.

First mining-project that I followed, good devs and a great community, this project has big potential!

whats we should expect with a i7-7700 CPU?

Probably... use linux :-/

Those messages are just warnings -- means, the OS isn't letting those "hashers" take ownership of a CPU thread. Could be other programs already have a lock, could just be the operating system.

Depending on OS, 5-10h/s

I see.. Thanks for the answer!

On my 7700hq using programmerdan java miner I'm getting around 4h/s using 6/8 threads and 3.8h/s using 8/8 threads which I find kind of strange.. Anyway you'll get like 1-2 shares per hour so is not worth mining, at least not at this moment.

[410751302]

Any exchanges, dev?

[z1ka]

@q5503162   The wallets/miners in the announcement post have all been updated.

@z1ka check if your firewall/antivirus is not blocking the app.

i turned off firewall/antivirus just to see if that was the problem in the first place.

wallet.aro isnt updated at all, and i've reinstalled openssl binaries. tried with making another wallet, same story. wallet.aro isnt updated, wallet on website is. will i be able to transfer mined coins without having that walet.aro (somehow through web site), or they are gone?

[zyrianka]

i am not getting any connections
is there a list of nodes to connect to?

[binlist]

A guide on how to run a node would be nice if anyone is up for it.

[AroDev]

@binlist https://forum.arionum.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=17

@zyrianka What are you trying to do?

@DaKluit I've checked, they are mining with aws clouds, not gpu.

@z1ka Can you message me your public key?

@410751302 Not yet, after 3-5 months.

Is aropool dropping in connection for you guys as well?
