Funakoshi equihash cuda miner is now available

[fluxy12]

FYI
one day of test the same rig and same OC settings give me 5.11% advantage of funakoshi VS ZM on avg hashrate reported by pool, mining votecoin (regular equihash)

on equihash 144_5 people reporting significant advantage of EWBF miner.

In release v4.1 of Funakoshi Cuda Miner, there is
a jump in the performance of equihash<144, 5>.

Now on gtx 1080 it is the fastest.

Hello, what is the speed with 1060 gtx on 144.5 ?

Ps : it would e better for you if this topic was in miner section, isn't it ? i reached it from web

Waiting on pers options 😎

In release v4.5 of Funakoshi-Miner the --pers parameter is supported.

I've tried Funakoshi-v4.5 and EWBF-v0.5 for Bitcoin-Gold mining on 2miners.
Here is my tweet...of course in Japanese:)

Ubuntu 16.04 with nvidia-396.44(CUDA 9.2), for both the single GTX1070 system and the rig(composed of 8 GPUs).

I'm trying v4.6 now:)

Though EWBF-v0.5 keeps advantage in my environment,
I feel there is no apparent difference in actual rewards, such as in hashrate.

What is the API for the miner? Trying to use ethcontrol to remote keep an eye on my miner but I get no stats. Thanks in advance.

Funakoshi-miner has no api, however it has a mininal telemetry.

Add argument  -tele-port p  to the command line and specify the port number
on which the miner listens to http-requests and return summary information in html.
The results can be displayed in a browser.

Hi Funakoshi!

Please add support for snowgem coin (equihash 144.5 same as btg)!

You can mine snowgem with Funakoshi-Miner. Just
pass the correct pers and algo args in the command line
    --algo 144_5 --pers sngemPoW

Hi Funakoshi,

I'm testing v.4.7 now on my 16 gpu rig!

Thanks,
Alex

i didn't see any speed improvements since 4.5 still slower than ewbf
gtx 1060

[funakoshi]

For equihash 144,5 performance has been improved, at
least for gtx 1080 on which Funakoshi-Miner is considerably
faster than EWBF. I haven't optimized for 1060 yet.

For equihash 200,9 Funakoshi-Miner is much faster on all devices.

[funakoshi]

When Chrome browser is running on your PC, it prevents the
miner from reaching its full speed (due to resources occupied
by Chrome on gpu). Thus close it before measuring mining speed.

The sol/s change all the time due to the statistical nature of the
equihash algorithm. You may get different results each minute. Each
job sent by the pool has different number of solutions in it. Thus
compare performance of different programs over time.

You should expect the reported sol/s to change about 10% to 20 % all the time.
This behaviour doesn't depend on the implementation, its in the core of equihash.

Thats why miner is faster on simpleming  than my Windows
And i saw lower power consuption than ewbf
6x1060
565W  average on EWBF and 165-170 sols
530W average on your miner and 154-162 sols
when i increase PL on funakoshi 156-165 sols



BTW im mining 144_5 will be nice when you speed up 1060

Already told you that your miner is not faster then ewbf.
It was considerably slower. Now it it closer but still a little bit behind.
On 5*1080 ewbf ~ 245-250 your ~ 233-238
Good progress anyway.

On each GTX 1080 withoud OC
EWBF performance is ~45 sol/s (EWBF itself says that it has ~45 sol/s, and 45 * 5 = 225 much less than 245-250)
Funakoshi performance is ~49 sol/s (I measured myself this performance on my 1080, which has been confirmed by other users).

Anyone having GTX 1080 can measure the performance and see the results.


 

[funakoshi]

Release v4.10 significantly improves the performance of equihash 144,5 of Funakoshi-Miner.
On GTX 1080 avg is 50 to 51 sol/s.

Hi Funakoshi,
I've a problem with your miner 4.10
I'm mining snowgem on my private pool server..
with ewbf it's okay..your miner quit at start with this log..

what's wrong?

Thanks

The miner expect a valid domain name as value of the --server argument
and you specified an IP address instead.

To overcome this you can map any valid domain name that you choose to your IP in the file:

    C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

For example Add the following line to the hosts file:

   54.37.xx.30  kukukukukuku.com

and than specify --server kukukukukuku.com
in the command-line.

Why nobody informs about gtx 1080 ti speed?

[funakoshi]

Why nobody informs about gtx 1080 ti speed?

Avg on GTX 1080 ti is 65 to 66 sol/s
Just checked
