Open Source XPM Pool + GPU Miner (aka. madPrimeMiner)

[eXtremal]

Mined only about 2.8 xpm in 13 hours with previous 11ch version ~1.16 cpd (~18.25cpd on new 10ch version) with previous 11ch version. this is normal?

I collect statistics about 11ch version and I think 10ch remains more profitable.. until next optimized 11ch release and difficulty=10,96.
Can you post your CPD with previous and current version?

i have 68CPD power

the profit calculator says i suppose to mine 55xpm a day with current diff, and through the last day i mined about 40xpm.

11ch 32,27 times less then 10ch (must be 10-12, profit calculator also use same coefficient), original miner not ready for 11ch, I'm working on it.

I replaced kernel and tried to connect to your pool, however the program closes immediately after opening after an error code that I dont have time to read...

I tried with both kernels (ch10 & ch10) and program refuses to run

(also copied the cl files from the GPU patch folder, although i dont know if they were needed)

[djm34]

Is this project still open source ?

Are you using 13.12 drivers? Gotta use 14.4 drivers...

I spoke to eXtremal and he said he'll keep it open source.

madprimeminer worked well with 13.12 the new kernel does not?

do I also need to copy the cl files from the GPU files?

If someone can compile the new .cl files using 13.12 then he can create a kernel.bin that will work for 13.12 drivers.

May be i doing something wrong, but accoring to 10-15 min running, new and old 11ch versions have same speed.

To see the error you need to make a bat file and put this in it exactly the way it is then run it and  show us the error here also upgrade your drivers to 14.3 or 14.4 from here i guess http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/2352/amd-catalyst-14-3-beta-1-0/mirrors

Code:

xpmclient

pause

no just move the .bin file over if its windows the .cl is for compiling on liniux

Same with Radeon R9 290X.. wait a next version
Claymore also prepares 11ch version

madprimeminer worked well with 13.12 the new kernel does not?

OpenCL compiler from 13.x has a bug, 14.x required for patched kernel.

Hi guys,

I am very confused now... So it seems maxmad will not be making solominer.

Which miner is recommended to use now? xpmminer or maxmad's xpmclient?

And what pool to use? eXtremal's private pool (5%) or should I compile maxmad's xpmpool? Which miner works for eXtremal's pool?
I don't need a detailed guide but even after compiling xpmpool's successfully there are prestsql user/role to set and not successful to initDb...

Thanks!

P.S. To MaxMad, I've just sent the 4.87XPM I mined with your server last week to you, which are all I've got in the wallet
I need to get the miner working to donate more

Hi,

I am new to Unix. Could somebody post guide how to compile client on Unix (e.g. Ubuntu). I would really like to mine xpm. Standard autogen/configure/make does not work here.

There is an untested binary version here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=598542.0 download it and double click

Not quite true .. this was the version that most was using when mining with madmax's pool. Even now with eXtremal's pool, that is no reason to compile the client yourself..

You need the kernel.bin that works for your GPU, that's about it.

As for those who wants it now, you could either use eXtremal's pool, compile xpmpool or get SuperComputing to share his code/binary:

Yesterday was Mother's Day-very busy with family, but I was able to find about 15 minutes to convert the Pool Sever into a Solo Pool Server (with no webserver or database support).

Benchmark results (Solo Pool Server Mode)
Benchmark duration: 60 minutes

GPU used: SAPPHIRE DUAL-X R9 280X 3GB GDDR5 OC
http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/product_index.aspx?pid=2022&lid=1

Modular Exponentiation: Used eXtremal's patch

Conclusion: The sieve code is very fast, but the modular exponentiation code needs some improvement. Should be able to achieve an estimated 5 CPD with a faster modular exponentiation implementation on an R9 280X (GTX 580 - 4.2 CPD)

Happy belated Mother's Day and Happy Mining!

i have 68CPD power

the profit calculator says i suppose to mine 55xpm a day with current diff, and through the last day i mined about 40xpm.

How-to calculate profit from CPD with MadMax's miner.

XpmPerDay = (CPD*(11 - Diffuculty) + CPD/32,27) * (1000 / Diffuculty^2)
Where 32,27 - coefficient 10ch number/11ch number

For example 68CPD with difficulty 10,95:
XpmPerDay = (68*0,05 + 68/32,27) * (1000 / 119,9025) = (3,4 + 2,1) * 8,34 = 45,87XPM
Pool fee: 2,2935XPM
Total: 43,5765, it's like about 40xpm

It seems, calculator uses different coefficient, not 32,27.

Radeon R9 290X with diffuculty 10,95 mines 0,558 block/day (using 10ch version).. 11ch shows 0,47cpd + some 10ch shares (I can say how much shares, no statistics). If shares more than 2, 11ch version more profitable since diffuculty reach 10,95

Thanks for the quick calculator and break down.

As for those who wants it now, you could either use eXtremal's pool, compile xpmpool or get SuperComputing to share his code/binary:

How to convert the Pool Sever into a Solo Pool Server -  without a web/database server.

Please make the following changes in the pool.cpp file and recompile:
.../xpmpool-master/primeserver/src/pool.cpp

Comment out the following code:

Line 30: //mBackend = 0;
Line 94: //mBackend = zsocket_new(ctx, ZMQ_DEALER);
Line 100: //zsocket_set_sndhwm(mBackend, 1*1000*1000);
Line 113: //err = zsocket_connect(mBackend, "tcp://localhost:8888");
Line 150: //zsocket_destroy(ctx, mBackend);
Line 344: //SendData(iter->second, mBackend);
Line 367: //SendData(mData, mBackend);
Line 569: //SendData(mData, mBackend);
Line 698: //mBackend = new PoolBackend(pwallet);
Line 750: //delete mBackend;

Change the following code as shown below:

Line 709: mMinShare = 7;//mBackend->Settings().MinShare;
Line 710: mTarget = 10;//mBackend->Settings().Target;

Recompile the pool server and you can now solo mine. Configure xpmclient miner with your XPM payout address (not used - key pool from your wallet.dat file will be used as usual)

Happy Mining
