SRBMiner Cryptonight AMD GPU Miner V1.9.3 - native algo switching

[elmariachi-s]

In the closed telegram channels they write that in the new algorithm of Monero, to which they recently switched, a hole was found that allows tyrit coins from wallets created after the fork. Knowledgeable people reconfigured because of the possible sharp drop in the rate. But this is a secret.

I am mining Monero coin with the both versions on the same rig . 8.6 and 8.7 . Both are keeping rr my rig after a few minutes ... All gpus in this rig are rx570 4GB . i have another rig with rx580 8G and your miner doesnt restart ... Do you know why i have this issues ? Thanks .

rr = restart ?

SRB should work fine with all Polaris cards, so rx580 8g should work too.
Maybe you can upload your log file from both rigs somewhere and share, that way i can get more info on what is happening.

  hey doktor , sry for late response , i was searching for my issues .. and i found the atikmdag-patcher was the problem . its gives me lagg on the amd catalyst panel and blue screen : VIDEO TDR failure .  even i have 4 gb on a 7 gpus rx 570 with 4GB vram ...

uneducated fud, pow algo is not related in any way to wallets or coins

The problem I've noticed with Monero a few updates after support for V4 was added is that it can take 2 minutes before cards start reporting hash rates. Like the cards will show 0 hash rate even though the pool is accepting shares. The watt usage will slowly rise up as the cards' hash rate goes from the 100's to 300's to eventually full speed. This is with my rigs of RX 470 and 580 cards. If I don't increase the startup timer from 2 minutes to around 4 minutes, SRBMiner will auto restart because 0 hash rates are been reported.

UPDATE: Oh, looks like it was a different issue. lol. But the slow start is something new I've noticed for V4...

Hi, guys!
Who can explain what means compute_errors in SRB json reports?
One of my gpus (rx580_hynix8, Win10, 18.6.1) have a one error every 1 min. I reduced an overclocking and intensity, but the errors in srbminer still comes.
HWINFO no have memory errors.
Maybe somebody knows?

I think it is some kind of bug from version 1.8.4

All my polaris cards have 10-20 hw errors per day on heavy algo now according to srbminer. But they are perfectly stable and pool hash is good. All these cards had no hw errors before with previous versions of srbminer and other miner software with the same clock/voltage settings.

It's not a bug. You noticed the hw errors, but did not notice the hashrate increase ?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3167363.msg50571884#msg50571884

Code:

- heavy_mode 3 is now the default

Code:

- heavy_mode 3 (experimental) is now even faster, but can produce more compute errors than heavy_mode 1

So if you have too much compute errors on heavy derived algos switch to heavy_mode 1 or 2. They are slower tho.

But the guy having a compute error every minute isn't related to this. That might be who-knows-what, maybe driver issues.

Sorry, I missed this )) Yes, small hash rate increase is there ...

The latest version 1.8.7 works perfectly for upx2. CPU is not overloaded. On the contrary on the same rig running at the same time srbminer and xmrig.

Will try it out, i used the 1.8.6 version yesterday. Otherwise i will use the "old_mode" solution.

Thanks a lot:)

I tested the 1.8.7 version and the "old_mode" method and in my case none of them helped. Still the cpu is at 99% and it's throttling my gpu's. With "old_mode" : true the hashrate drops even further, around 22kh/s per card. Is there anything else i can do?

Doctor, did you found out what's causing the cpu overload?

Nah, not really possible that with old mode enabled still 99%. Yes, hashrate is little lower on some algos with it enabled because more work is done on the GPU, and almost none on the CPU.

I exactly know why it's giving more load on the cpu, because upx job round is done in less than 100ms, and a 1,2,4mb scratchpaded job is done in ~2s.
Rewriting some stuff to use intrinsics, so cpu load will be lower. But still old mode enabled should decrease your cpu load a lot.

Hi Doktor!

Noriced when using gpureorder hashrate table and found share list are not equal.
Hashrate table is correct.

hi Dok,

if i have ElioVP tool open in windows, SRB miner starts without tweak_profiles and i cant enable them. Vice versa if i start SRB miner i cant open ElioVP GUI tool, gives error and it crashes. Is that intended as tweak profiles are basically those suggested timings on the elioVP topic on bitcointalk?

Intended - you even get a message about it in the log, and no, the timings are not predefined, the values are calculated based on your values found at the moment of miner start.

Greeting,
I have seen this little programmer for restart, but I do not know how to set it up. I tried to start the bat fail from the zip, but nothing happens. Do you need to add one of the desired 3 tracking scenarios at the start of the mining and how?
I'm new to this, I tried to find an instruction but I did not succeed and I can not program it

Rewriting some stuff to use intrinsics, so cpu load will be lower. But still old mode enabled should decrease your cpu load a lot.

Fixed the issue, my config was not properly structured and it didn't initialize old_mode. Now the hashrate is great and the cpu workload is around 55%.

Great job doctor.

Great job doctor.

Currently i achieved to lower the cpu usage by around 40% without the old_mode enabled, still working on it, maybe i can lower it more.
Weak CPU + lot of GPU's in rig + low difficulty can really make your CPU sweat.

I am surprised that your cpu usage is 55% with old_mode, that must be some really weak CPU in there

Happens because kernel precompilation takes a lot of time on those slow cards so watchdog triggers in the mean time. This v4 precompilation It also fu**s up the min_rig_speed.
Disable watchdog or set it to disable mode - temporary fix. I will try to do something with this..
