dammmmm, whats the cost/rental to run that many servers

[testthewhiterabbit]

What CPUs are you using in the servers?  And where are you getting the servers from?  Just started testing this out myself now.

Is it time to fire up the xeons again?

Hmm, since I already have a digitalocean account, I decided to try MMC mining. I am using a 2CPU/2GB node, but keep getting this:

Code:

Anyone who knows what to do? I am using the "yam-yvg1900-M7j-linux64-generic" download.

[suchnoob]

What version of the miner to use for an AMD FX-8320 Vishera?
I'm guessing yam-yvg1900-M7j-win64-bdver2.zip  bd stand for bulldozer right?

In the readme provided with the miner:

Code:

6. Known issues

If your miner shows "PTS Agg. CPM: ?; Rnds C/I: 0/0, Don. C/I: 0/0; Cfg/Thr CPM: ?/? 0" over an extensive period of time, consider restarting your miner. 
In most cases this caused by problems with network connection or temporary pool server unavailability.

I have tried it with two pools now, doesn't change anything. Could it be something with digital ocean? I don't have a problem with them connecting to any other pools (for other coins).

Correct.

Can you post your .bat string?  Have you tried the other ports for mmc pool? (80 / 8880 / 8881 / 8882 / 8883)

It is a linux (Ubuntu 13.10 x64) machine, so no bat file. I start with "./yam --config yam.cfg". My yam.cfg file looks like this:

Code:

threads = 0
mining-params = mmc:av=1&aesni=on
mine = getwork://MGPAH8GnP68q3cWvqb93cFmgM51XzoPVQp@work.mmcpool.com:80:8880:8881:8882:8883/mmc

I get about 14HPM with my desktop sandy bridge CPU so I'd be interested to know what kind of servers are being used to get 30-40HPM each

[Treggar]

Makes sense.  I have 1GB of unfragmented memory free for each of my cores so I guess 14HPM for 10 threads isn't too bad.

I can see 30-40 using 32 cores lol, but not for the price you mentioned.  Must have been a rare find.

I've been mining for about 2.5 hours and made 1 measily MMC heh.

I had the same problem with yvg1900's miner. It is a fantastic and very well optimized miner, however there is a caveat:

It uses 1GB per thread, so if your setup has less GB than threads, you need to reduce # of threads.

Here is what I did with one server that has 24 threads and only 8GB of RAM:

nthreads = 3 av=3 (that turns off hyper threading) - and run this twice. But as a start I just ran one process with 6 threads using avg.

Then use a regular miner that only uses 1GB of RAM with the other 18 threads.

so 6GB + 1GB + whatever is left for the code/system fits in 8GB of RAM and those servers produce about 7HPM, not spectacular but they only did 4HPM before that. In the pools however this reports as 10-11HPM so not sure which one is the correct.

For the ones that report as 31HPM in the server and about 40-45HPM in the pool, they are 32 cores with 64GB of RAM. Yes - I found a fantastic deal for those servers, but I can not tell you where I got them from since that might affect my ability to get more.

Cheers! Hope this is helpful.

Ok, I understand the problem. This is a 2cpu/2GB vps, but of course the OS needs some ram as well. I edited the config file as below, but then I get the message "Error: Parameter [nthreads] not supported for ProtoShares". Sorry if I'm being really noobish here...

Code:

threads = 0
mining-params = mmc:av=3&aesni=on&nthreads=3
mine = getwork://MGPAH8GnP68q3cWvqb93cFmgM51XzoPVQp@work.mmcpool.com:80:8880:8881:8882:8883/mmc

Hmm... there is threads=0 at the top, don't add it as &nthreads=3 to mining params, that's not how it works. And also you can't have 3 threads on 2GB.

Use yam -c yam-mmc.cfg. protoshares is PTS, MemoryCoin is MMC.

Ok, got it working now. I deleted the nthreads line, and put "1" at the threads line. Apparently 1 thread is the max at a 2gb ram droplet.
