WildRig: new miner for Wild Keccak algo

[clintar2]

Released 0.9.17 beta
- moved scratchpad update into a better place, this should decrease amount of "Low difficulty" shares before "new job"
- added general uptime value to API

It has always been C:\Users\tbear\AppData\Local\.cache\boolberry  with ccminer.

I think he means he is updating the gpu scratchpad in a different place in his code.

Andrucrypt, running 0.9.17 for extended time period leads me to the following observation.  For whatever reason, the hashing for this miner when it has been running continously for many hours to days seems to slow down due to increased rate of rejected shares.  Maybe it is a memory leak type issue, I dunno.

I do observe that the first hour or two has very low rejected shares rate, and this observation is consistent when you close and reopen the miner.  So for now, what works best for me is to run a .bat file that runs the miner for 2 to 3 hours, shut it down, and reopen it again for optimal performance.

Don't know how you can easily troubleshoot this type of issue but I am at least pointing it out.  I do think your miner outperforms both ccminer and the openCl miner in terms of net raw performance at the pool side, but this rejected shares issue is inhibiting optimal overall speed.

I'm still getting about the same amount of hashrate and shares as ccminer on usbbr.mining.blue. On other pools my hashrate goes all over the place on the pool with ccminer. Your app. should improve this.. but I didn't try it out yet on other pools. usbbr.mining.blue  pool owner worked on this with me.

if ERRORLEVEL 1000 goto custom
timeout /t 5
goto start

Hi, as I wrote in my hashrate statement - two cards can be fine with ccminer, because there is enough range of job for them before they can get to "problematic" zone with wrong calculations. And that's why I want to implement possibility to disable donation for such rigs. Working prototype for Windows is already done, but not yet released.

ps: is this GTX750Ti's? I used similar launch config for them with ccminer. Best solution for me with them is using static diff like hashrate * 10(and strategy set to 1), because vardiff for wild keccak algo is total insane on all pools as I know %)

Thanks for reporting. Currently I improved some things more(probably will release tomorrow). Anyway, can you try to run 0.9.18 and check if there some troubles with validation hashes on CPU? Previously it was mistakenly not used.

Yes they're 750ti's.  I have 2 cards on this computer and I have a 6 card rig.
With ccminer at usbbr.mining.blue I set my batch file like this.

ccminer-x64-2.2.2-cuda7.5.exe -a wildkeccak -t 2 -l 60x256 -o stratum+tcp://usbbr.mining.blue:8888 -u my address_10000 -p x --max-log-rate 30 -k http://mining.blue/scratchpad.bin

But note...With ccminer I always had to manually download the scratchpad. But with wildrig... it does it automatically.... nice.

No... it's for everyone.

"donate-level": 0,     // default donation level is 2%, you can increase it if you want not change always 2%. I'm try 2.5% --> tool always show 2%

Unfortunately donate-level is not a float value.

Please add more function on Tool and API WEB:
1. Fan speed
2. GPU Temperature

Thanks

That is in my TODO list, so I will work on that soon.

Unfortunately donate-level is not a float value.

--> I'm try 1% not work and 3% same ?

[andrucrypt]

Unfortunately donate-level is not a float value.

--> I'm try 1% not work and 3% same ?

3 should work, 1 - is below minimum right now.

OK. I'm try upgrade new miner

Released 0.9.19 beta
- improved scratchpad management, now scratchpad will be updated on disk every 10Kb of new data from pool(each ~1hour)
- fixed possible crash in rare cases
- fixed infinite rejects if miner was started with fresh new scratchpad and only 1 addendum update from pool
- added logging for http daemon to diagnose why API is not working
- now it's possible to set donate level to zero on rigs with 1-2 videocards connected(currently Windows only)
- added parameter --multiple-instance to allow start multiple instances of one miner with the same --opencl-platform
