Hey guys, just for info.

Sometimes i have my mining window which close after 2 to 10 hours of mining.

And i resolve my problem (i think). This is because i have plot file which was not finish properly (window closed before the end of plotting).

So i replot them until the end, and now, no more problem, mining without closing since one day.

So mining with a plot file not correctly finish working and display error, but working well if you finish it correctly

I also had unfinished plots. But my miners never closed because of that...

so...no one has adressed the kernel memory(paged) problem? after closing the miner the memory remain there

disabling superfetch made no difference, same for "disablepagexecutive"

I think that if Windows needs that memory it will start cleaning seeing that its not being used anymore

you mean that if i add other TB, that mem won't increase farther?

It might increase further. But Windows will report that its being used to keep files in memory in case you use the app again.
So, opening the miner again should increase the ram usage a bit, but not as it would when you started it the first time.
This is pure theory, so I might be wrong.

What changes the low value of deadline?? Staggersize, big plots or other??
If a computer is plotting, the mining is affected??

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work this way. Windows can cache so much that the miner can crash due to bad allocs. And then it still doesn't release the memory after the miner is down.

It seems to be a problem that gets worse over time as windows sees you keep reading the same file/s

I was able to keep it under control by disabling prefetching and superfetching as detailed here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=731923.msg8635800#msg8635800 , but that didn't seem to work for Amph

Is it a pagefile issue in his case possibly? Windows 8/8.1 does not seem to have the issue as Amph has in Windows 7.

Pm me some e-mail address , I'll give you screenshot of my win 8.1 Pro mining conf

with how much TB you are mining? you are at 3.57gb already

Hi guys, anyone still mining on the urays pool http://198.199.103.145:8121/  ?

I have 1TB plotted but the payments arent really good. Im getting like 20-30, sometimes 50 burst for share. Few days ago it was 50-150. Maybe i need more TB ? I wonder is this worth to keep ploting the rest of my 4TB or switch generator to another pool ? Thanks

Anyone solved the problem with backwarded order of transactions in new wallet 1.1.0?

in pool v2, i can get 800/tb/day, several days ago, can get 1200+burst, difficulty raised

hey guys, I tried the GPU plotter but GPU driver crashes every time it starts plotting

second thing, I've noticed kinda big amount of data being transfered while plotting/mining burst. It can download even about 500MB per day, while mining other coins it was about 10MB/day. It might put me out from burst train to the moon, because I have limited data transfer:(
Does it download data only while plotting or while mining?

Try with different version of catalyst software. There are still different version of gpu to be tested but my mate successfully plotting with 290x twin frozer x10 times faster than his i7 processor. If you gpu is same model, pm for specs  

I tried on 2x 7950 and the driver was crashing. Then I tried on another pc with single 7950 and it doesn't even start to plot, it crashes after 'Building OpenCL program'.
what catalyst version does your mate have? I'm pretty sure I have the newest drivers.

Supposedly they are on 13.9. I just did a clean uninstall and installing 13.9 on a HD7970.

Yes my mate is on 13.9, i told him to download this version as it was mentioned here before and it worked straight on his 290x but he said on same pc it didnt work on 280x, so hope driver is an issue. You can try installing different version and see if one works for you.

I tried 13.9 + AMD SKD and exactly same happens.

I used old 13.1 drivers on a 280x and works fine!
