Wolf's XMR/BCN/DSH CPUMiner - 2x speed compared to LucasJones' - NEW 06/20/2014

[raperinoa]

hi wolfie, ty so much for your miner and flurry! nor fury  

im testing with i74702MQ and yeah prolly drop -5% or zero different than 5-30-2014

[xxnirvana69xx]

All of my tests were done on an AMD FX-8320 @ 4.2GHz, 8GB 1833, Win7x64, ran @ -t 7. The average is from when lightly using the computer as normal and the peak, where it spends most of its time, when left alone. Now if only I can figure out how to compile it on windows myself lol.

5/29
   Peak – 322
   Average – 270
5/30
   Peak – 312
   Average – 265
Experimental
   Peak – 328
   Average – 275
6/8
   Peak – 331
   Average – 315

I'd give all kinds of naughty favours for win64 binaries. With AES preferred for i7-4930k *nudge* *nudge*

I'll compile them soon.

I tried out the 9th of June on Win 7 64-bit and it gives a 3-4% reduction on an i5-2500k but maybe a 1% increase on an i7-4930k.

Can hugepages even be done on Windows?

[drmavis]

Yeah hugepages can be done - the YAM miners by yvg1900 (for MMC, PTS, etc.) use hugepages and are the fastest CPU miners for the coins it mines.

[obobob]

I'm using GCC 4.8.2 and LD 2.23.52 compiled.
when I make , I got a error:

cpu-miner.c: In function 'miner_thread':
cpu-miner.c:1065:88: error: 'MADV_HUGEPAGE' undeclared (first use in this function)
   madvise(persistentctx, sizeof(struct cryptonight_ctx), MADV_RANDOM | MADV_WILLNEED | MADV_HUGEPAGE);

who can help me ?
thanks.

Nice!

Avast antivirus just started registering this minerd.exe as dangerous

What distro? It probably doesn't include hugepages.

Nice!

AV companies do that to boost the number of malware they "found" so they look good on paper. The miner is used by malware to mine on people's computers, but instead of just tagging the actual malware, they add the miner as well.

Not 100% sure. Since most Win users can't compile their own binaries, I'd have to revert every commit, one by one, and build a Win64 binary for each >.<

I always thought that the binary one for a particular type of Windows. Why did they each compile?

Second report I've gotten of CentOS not working... I think the first was fixed by updating glibc.

many thanks!
I will try...

What speed you get with an i7 4930k?

There is a difference with a i7 3930K?

I'm curious to find out the speed of the new processor i7 4970k! About 400/500 h/s?

It's only about 250 my dear friend, I'm using Windows 7, the real speeds are in Linux.

[xxnirvana69xx]

What are the speed differences in Linux from Windows? Might try Ubuntu again if the speed increase is worth it.

And what's the difference?

Thanks for not helping ;-)

[xxnirvana69xx]

Well I was just curious in an actual speed difference. I don't want to install Ubuntu tonight for a 50h/s increase.

[DooLocsta]

How can I make sure I am getting the AES-NI configured correct in Windows?  This is currently all I have access to but as soon as I start the miner I see it detects a new block then crashes.  Thanks.

Wolf u must be getting paid by xmr team, why dont you just release an wild keccak miner?

yes, cryptonight is not only XMR/MRO as your topic title suggests

[smooth]

He's not getting paid by XMR as far as I know.

Perhaps he just isn't interested in putting a lot of work into WK because WK is a tiny little niche thing that hasn't gotten much traction yet.

as far as u know right, cause cryptonote is anonymous.
