[MTC] High Performance GPU Miner for Metiscoin (Updated - 19 Feb 2014)

[gigawatt]

I've taken Girino's GPU miner for Metiscoin and optimized the hell out of it.
The new version is now over 3.5 times as fast.


19 February, 2014 - Finished a complete rewrite of the OpenCL code.  Now the miner is 15-20% faster!
Get the latest version from the download section below.  The changes have been uploaded to github.

12 February, 2014 - The issue with "invalid shares" on the 32-bit build has been fixed.
In addition, the "-s" flag was added to allow adjusting the GPU load.  Run "xptMiner" with no flags for more details.

10 February, 2014 - New version has been released!  Please re-download your miner!
The update includes a 5% speed bonus along with some additional debugging information for device troubleshooting.
Download links remain the same.

Troubleshooting

Please be sure to update your video card drivers before you post an error!
If you're 100% certain your drivers are up to date and are still encountering crashes or compile errors please post in this thread.

Download the latest build, run it, and post a reply with the following information:

1) When you run the miner, what's the first few lines that pop up on screen?  It should look something like this:

Code:

Available devices:
Platform 00: Intel(R) OpenCL
  Device 00: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000
Platform 01: AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing
  Device 01:        Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3210M CPU @ 2.50GHz
Adjusting num threads to match device list: 1
Initializing workers...
Initing device 0...
Initializing GPU 1

======================================================================
Device information for:        Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3210M CPU @ 2.50GHz
CL_DEVICE_GLOBAL_MEM_SIZE:            8258832 kb
CL_DEVICE_GLOBAL_MEM_CACHE_SIZE:           32 kb
CL_DEVICE_LOCAL_MEM_SIZE:                  32 kb
CL_DEVICE_LOCAL_MEM_TYPE:           CL_GLOBAL
CL_DEVICE_MAX_WORK_GROUP_SIZE:           1024
CL_DEVICE_ENDIAN_LITTLE:                    1
CL_DEVICE_ADDRESS_BITS:                    64
CL_DEVICE_OPENCL_C_VERSION:         OpenCL C 1.2
======================================================================

2) What's the version number that shows when you run the miner?  It should look like

Code:

xptMiner (v1.X) + GPU Metiscoin Miner (v0.Xgg)

3) What command did you use to launch the miner?

4) What operating system and what program version (32-bit or 64-bit)?

Ideally, you can capture all three of these things with one screenshot.  It should look like this.

If you are getting compile errors, please include the compile error log.  You can embed it in [code­][/code­] tags or upload it to pastebin.com


Note: If you have a ATI Radeon 4000 series GPU, this code will not work!  The 4000 series doesn't fully support OpenCL.  There's nothing I can do to fix that.

I seem to be underperforming. I'm only getting ~15.5k on a 280x. Am I doing something wrong?

[Meizirkki]

I had problems with Girino's miner as well, a littlebit different error with yours:

Code:

Initializing GPU...
Initing device 0.
Initializing GPU 1
Initializing Device: Iris Pro

Compiling OpenCL code... this may take 3-5 minutes
ERROR: -11, CL_BUILD_PROGRAM_FAILURE, if there is a failure to build the program executable. This error will be returned if clBuildProgram does not return until the build has completed.

It's not a 32-bit build.  I'll upload one of those later.

Just uploaded an x86 build.  Enjoy!

What did you get with the original GPU miner?

[gigawatt]

can you make a version that works for solo mining?

I might be able to work on one.  I'll need to look up how the RPC miners work.
Solo mining uses a completely different protocol than pool mining.

[rqdxrocket]

I have been unable to get this to work on multiple video cards.  It works great on my 6800 series but I have been unable to make it work on the other 2 (a 7800 series and a 7900 series).  Anyone had any luck? btw I am using the 64-bit version.

Thanks

[nfronz]

Using te 64bit version i keep getting a compile error? I can use my cpu with this program just fine but when i go to turn on gpu it errors out anyone had this issue?
