"gpu-threads" : 4
actually performs better on my 280x and 7950 ....

Tried it. I lose 4 Mh per card.

Interesting I gain about 500KHs on both cards

Yeah every card is different even if they are the same model and even the same brand. Mine are Gigabyte Windforce. Two are GV-R928XOC-3GD/F70 and two are GV-R928XOC-3GD/F60. 280x are in fact HD7970 rebranded.

Strange regarding threads though. Did you try with "gpu-threads" : 1 ?

I'm not using pool but am solo mining ...

Here's my config for sgminer 4.1.0-103-g00015 :
"intensity" : "18,20",
"worksize" : "256",
"kernel" : "groestlcoin",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"thread-concurrency" : "8192,8192",
"shaders" : "2048,1792",

"gpu-engine" : "1100,1100",
"gpu-fan" : "30-100",
"auto-fan" : true,
"gpu-memclock" : "1700,1300",

"api-port" : "4028",
"expiry" : "60",
"failover-switch-delay" : "60",
"gpu-dyninterval" : "7",
"gpu-platform" : "0",
"log" : "5",
"no-pool-disable" : true,

"scan-time" : "59",
"tcp-keepalive" : "30",
"temp-hysteresis" : "2",
"shares" : "0",
"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin"

You can't use the optimized kernel in solo mining though. Also, Thread Concurrency and look gap are not necessary anymore. Mem clock seems also high to me. Intensity works best with 22 in my case. That's for the 280x ?

Have you tried the OP's basic config or mine?

Just tried 1 and I get about 1.5MHs gain combined on both cards, thanks

Revising my config posted last page

[polanskiman]

I recommend you start from scratch and use the basic config provided by the OP. Mine is quite similar except I simply disabled most parameters with underscores.

[utahjohn]

Obviously my config for solo still needs a bit of work.

280x 63C 11.4 MHs
7950 64C 12.4 MHs

280x was faster than 7950 before

280x 63C 11.4 MHs
7950 64C 12.4 MHs

Try deleting the .bin file if you make some changes to the config.

My question relates to whether the increased hashrate in cryptohunger pool with the optimized kernel would be equivalent if I was able to use that optimized kernel with say Danbi's pool?

Once Danbi is back from his travel we can discuss it with him directly.

btw I had to rename the .bop file from groestlcoinTahiti256l4.bop to groestlcoinTahiti256l8.bop as I was getting an error at loading where it complained that groestlcoinTahiti256l8.bop could not be found.

Hi!

the l4 / l8 is the sizeof(long). So looks like "long int" is 8 bytes on your system.
Are you using linux?

I assume that it works ok after renaming, so I can probably safely get rid of "l4" in the end in next release.

What are your video cards? 7950?

Thanks

Hi!

Could you please let me know why are you solomining?
Is it some other coin? (I.e. not DMD, GRS, ATH, DOKDO) ?
Is it because if power consumption?

Because 280X should give you about 14MH - 17MH on 280X with optimized kernel.

Thanks

Indeed. He said he would look at it after his trip.

Hello Srcxxx,

Yes using Ubuntu 12.04.

No, I am using 280x cards (or 7970 for that matter).

BTW, will the kernel be further improved while maintaining power consumption?

ATH has 80 confirmations?
Withdrawal also wait 2-3 hours or less?

As stated in his previous post ATH payments are also processed every hour except when you start mining, the first payment will take place within 2/3 hours from mining. I have been mining DMD in cryptohunger pool since yesterday and I am receiving payments every hour now.

As for the confirmation with ATH that I don't know

[utahjohn]

@srcxxx

You asked why I am solo mining, As soon as my block gets confirmed it starts getting coin-age right?  Seems like an advantage over pool mining to me

[Mister1k]

Whats going on with the diamond/groestl network. Snails pace or what.
Why is the net diff so low all of a sudden and rejects everywhere?
Auto pay doesn't seem to be working or is slow as molasses@ cryptohunger.
Two transactions in   7 hours from start of mining.waited 4 plus for first pay.
Two machines.Transactions for one address only.
Any ideas ?  The whole groestl network way down. Coming back now.
I see a lot of unconfirmed block finds on Diamond.
And see alot of
Block detected before pool notification.

.745917 for 40 mhs with at least 10 blocks found. Are you kidding me?
As soon as I seen the first transaction I knew something was up.
Mac1 is  one card 13.7 mhs on optimized. 10.6mh on standard groestl
Mac2 is a double card 26+ mh on optimized. 21+mh on standard groestl
I started at 6 am until 12 noon on Mac 1
Mac2 at 7 am until the first transaction came thru!! around 11 am.
Then I switched to standard pools.
Look at the time stamps for the other transaction from a standard pool.FFS!!
Mac2 in an hour or less.
Mac 2 at Cryptohunger 4 hrs run time for .111623!!!
10 Machine hours 40mh+ for .745917 diamond.. OMFG
1 machine hour 25+mh standard pool. For 1.085448.
You do the math.
Look at the worker stats on the site. For WHAT?

I quote from srcxxx (post #82: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=652849.msg7500564#msg7500564):

"Payouts have been changed to every hour.

You will receive a payment if you earned 1 ATH, 1 GRS, 1 DOKDO or 0.01 DMD.

If you have just started mining, please wait for 2-3 hours until your hourly earnings stabilize (because it usually takes 120-150 confirmations for a mined block, which is 2 - 2 and a half hours).

Once you've mined for 3 hours after starting on this pool for the 1st time, you should be getting roughly 1/24 of your daily income every hour.

Let me know if that is too far from truth.

Use http://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency or http://whatmine.com/ to calculate your average income.

Thanks!"

I personally see no problem. Every payout is different every hour but the total in 24 hours corresponds to my hashing power (~60Mh) which roughtly corresponds to 25 DMD per day.
