[ANN][BURST] Burst | Efficient HDD Mining | New 1.2.3 Fork block 92000

[burstcoin]

I must say i am very eager to know how the tests of the dev went for the v2 pool.
This will be awesome. You will be able to use the the same plots you are using right now for solo-mining.

Should we make some kind of a community FB account to make BURST better known to the outside world?

Reward assignment seems to be working. Need to do a few more tests though.

I don't do FB, but feel free to if you want.

Thx for the feedback dev!

Testing across multiple machines revealed an issue, and I'm going to have to postpone the client update a day.

dcct's plot generator(twice the speed, linux only): https://bchain.info/plotgenerator.tgz
Plot merge tool(significantly reduce disk stress. linux only): https://bchain.info/merge.c (thanks to dcct)
how can recompile to windows version?

you can try to use cygwin if you want

i try, but i don't know how use
$ make

The Plot-generator rewritten in C is bloody fast... got a 4x speed ... before i was writing 2 gb in 7 min ... now 1 gb in 1 min !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

is it fine also for pool yes? just generate it with pool key and start pool mine yep ?

what is plot merge ?

You use linux ?
Maybe for generate i can install VMWare with Linux?

[cptfisher]

im native on ubuntu x64 14.04 dunno if in vmware u will gate same performance.


how to do pool mine ?

can you recompile to windows for me? )))

[burstcoin]

what is plot merge ?

Plot merge refactors the plot files so you have less disk seeking and longer sequential reads. Your read speed will increase and hdd stress will be reduced.

im native on ubuntu x64 14.04 dunno if in vmware u will gate same performance.


how to do pool mine ?

At this point you should probably just make solo plots. New client update will most likely be released tomorrow that will allow solo plots to be used on pools a few days later.

If we already have pool plots generated can we keep those?

Yes. I'll keep the old pool up for a while and/or sign the old pool addresses reward generation to a v2 pool and use the old pool registration list as special-case payouts.

Anyone having issues with c-cex loading up properly, prices and buy/sell columns not loading? All other exchange run fine when I use them. ie. Poloniex, BTER, BTC38, Cryptsy, Mintpal, etc...

Same issue here in both firefox and chrome, even while logged into my account.

Plot merge refactors the plot files so you have less disk seeking and longer sequential reads. Your read speed will increase and hdd stress will be reduced.

Does this refer to the stagger size while generating plots or is this referring to the mining process?

Would you be able to compile dcct new C plot generator for Windows? I don't mine using Linux, but it would give everyone an equal footing on both Windows and Linux.

Is there still a possibility of a GPU plot generator to be released?

Works fine after I logged in. Maybe they are doing a protocol change to their site.

It's displaying fine logged it and logged out at my end.

hi, is there a minimum how much hd space is need it and is there a maximum in how much hd space you could add to the network?

i tried to figure out a solution to compile shabal on windows but it looks like the assembler code has some specific optimizations to interact with the linux kernel which simply does not exist in windows.
also windows and linux will never be comparable in terms of data wrangling which burst does.
this starts with the ntfs filesystem and ends with the task scheduler.
the good thing for burst is that most users will never experience this difference because they host only a few terrabyte plotfiles on their machines. windows should work fine up to 20 tb local storage and 4tb cif network volumes.

no limit, the more the better

oh ok so 500 tb won't be a problem ?
