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

[ltcnim]

just tested the new gpuminer with my GTX660. I'm also not sure about the last parameter, but I was only able to use 16 threads, so I decided to go with

...2000 16 64

which resulted in around 2500 nonces per minute, which is around the value I get from my old Core i5 750 (with half the power ^^). I'm tempted to try it on my mining rig with 5x750Ti, but there is currently a plotting running with 3TB on a i7 and it would suck a little if the gpu miner would not work with all cards ^^

[BurstBurst]

Work great. Get 16.9K Nonces/Minutes. Good for my 40TB.

GPU plot generator v2.0.0

Changelog:
Kernel split to increase graphic cards compatibility (introduction of the <hashesNumber> parameter to batch hashes computations).
OpenCL platforms and devices listing added.
Platform and device selection added as generation parameters.
Enhanced CPU and GPU support (removed the auto-selection and fallback).
Clearer information display.
Displaying the % and nonces/minutes while generating plots.
README added with some basic build and run instructions.
Makefile cleaned up.

Windows x86 binaries: https://mega.co.nz/#!2BNDXY4L!jgwHDZXDJyFp2Jg5mN8sxtpplgXEInSMf1cQGbPc5lM
Sources: https://mega.co.nz/#!LZs1RapR!6VGB1SssX5lFp8GX0bZmN2OH-MftLVzEAn1P1nKrdwA

Please read the README provided with both the binaries and the sources.
Your feedbacks are welcome, it greatly helps me.
If you like this software, support me

Roadmap for the next versions (feel free to post your features/ideas) :
Kernel enhancement to speed up plot generation (shabal core can be improved).
Find a way to reduce the memory overhead caused by my workaround solution to bypass the per-thread local memory limit.
Make a list of graphic cards along with their optimal parameters (needs your participation).

gpuPlotGenerator generate <platformId> <deviceId>  <path> <address> <start nonce> <nonces> <stagger size> <threads> ? ? ? ?
gpuPlotGenerator generate 0 0  <path> <address> 0 800000 1000 128 ? ? ?

is that correct?

Try:

Code:

gpuPlotGenerator generate 0 0 <path> <address> 0 800000 1000 128 8160

Cool Burstmultipool is ligit.  Found my first payout. 

Pointing my shit again to the pool.

yea, pool is great, I will continue to mine there. support burst price!! MINE at burstmultipool.com!!!

We need more buy support guys don't just plot use your legacy miners at burstmultipool.Com

I am but I don't see any shares coming to me and the mhs does not jibe with what I am throwing at it. I'm mining X11.

Awesome!
Just tested it out on Linux (Ubuntu 14), I had to modify a couple more things than what was in the readme:

OPENCL_INCLUDE = ../_opencl/include
OPENCL_LIB = ../_opencl/lib/win/x86
CC = /c/_data/cryo/_apps/mingw/bin/g++
CC_FLAGS = -ansi -pedantic -W -Wall -std=c++0x -O3 -I$(OPENCL_INCLUDE)
LD = /c/_data/cryo/_apps/mingw/bin/g++

I changed these to my locations (also CC and LD needed to be changed):

OPENCL_INCLUDE = ../opt/AMDAPPSDK-2.9-1/include
OPENCL_LIB = ../opt/AMDAPPSDK-2.9-1/lib/x86_64
CC = g++
CC_FLAGS = -ansi -pedantic -W -Wall -std=c++0x -O3 -I$(OPENCL_INCLUDE)
LD = g++

I attempted to do a "make dist" but it was complaining that the "bin" folder didn't exist.
I created the bin folder manually, and then I was then able to issue a "make dist" and got the following:

Code:

Compiling [Command.cpp]
Compiling [CommandGenerate.cpp]
Compiling [CommandHelp.cpp]
Compiling [CommandList.cpp]
CommandList.cpp:54:5: warning: unused parameter ‘p_args’ [-Wunused-parameter]
 int CommandList::listPlatforms(const std::vector<std::string>& p_args) {
     ^
Compiling [gpuPlotGenerator.cpp]
Compiling [OpenclError.cpp]
Linking [bin/gpuPlotGenerator.exe]
Generating distribution

Not sure if that is a critical issue or not, but I ran the app anyways.... and it appears to be GENERATING PLOTS on my AMD Radeon 7800!

Code:

./gpuPlotGenerator.exe generate 0 0 /media/twig/Burst_Coin_21/GPU_Plotter_v2.0.0/bin/plots 11111222223333344444 14670000 7335000 1000 64 1024

Also, not sure on the "hashes" (1024) number really compares to though

On my AMD Radeon 7800!


WOOT! 121,000 nonces/minute!

we got to compile in windows :-(

Only if you want to rebuild the source. Otherwise, the binaries work out of the box.

[ltcnim]

stupid question: which openCL package would I need to install on my Ubuntu 14.04 rig? I only have nVidia 750Ti cards there, so I guess the AMD drivers are not an option..

how to use all card on rig to plot ? the deviceID only uses 1 card with your command ?

[Razerglass]

Hey i had a question about the right thread count to use on my 670. ive got it able to plot but i know im using the wrong setting i replied here

http://burstforum.com/index.php?threads/gpu-plot-generator.45/#post-258"

[uray]

guys burst-pool.cryptoport.io is going to explode !

we got 300+ miners at http://burst-pool.cryptoport.io, network traffic is huge, if we continue like this, more and more nonce submissions are going to be failed due to network lag.

please use alternate pool if you can, and spread the hash power and network trafic, this is completely separate pool, so you need to re-do reward assignment transaction to this pool address, please follow the How-To on site

alternate pool : http://burst-pool2.cryptoport.io

set your reward assignment to 16434009311448803259 (BURST-WBXV-ER87-3JCG-GNC6A)

mining URL :

Code:

http://burst-pool2.cryptoport.io port 8124

or

Code:

http://burst-pool2.cryptoport.io port 80

Great idea.

Have you considered releasing your source code to the community so other pools can be made? I know others have been asking for it.

how to use all card on rig to plot ? the deviceID only uses 1 card with your command ?

I'm not sure on that...  My guess would be you would have the different cards do different plots:

Code:

gpuPlotGenerator generate 0 1 <path> <address> 1 1000000 1000 128 8160

Code:

gpuPlotGenerator generate 0 2 <path> <address> 1000001 2000000 1000 128 8160

[fudge]

Guys, i have a small overlap for 2 plots. Is it ok or I should re-plot?

[SpeedDemon13]

Shouldn't be anything major and you should be fine.

1 miner already take up 90% of cpu.

What if you bind each miner's process to a single cpu core? Does the hashrate go down after this?
