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

[Amph]

gpu aren't that good for plotting, one i7 4790k can compare with a 290x for 200w less consumption, a no-brainer

oh really how much nonce / minutes it writes?
compared to google cloud it can produce about 7800 nonce / minutes, how much for gpu ?

7800 for the 4970k? someone early said that his 290x can plot 1tb in 3.30 hours

we have a 2:1 ratio then, still the gpu consume more per time

its Xeon E5-2650

it seems too low for a 16 core, my i5 4670k is at 4500/min

can anyone explain why 1tb hdd gets 1 payment from cryptoport of 250 where a 300gb got 5 payments plus 3000 burst 10 mins after setting up rewards in wallet. .... is pool broken

1tb plots are 4194304 nonce.
3.5h are 12600 seconds.
12600 seconds are 210 minutes.
4194304 nonce / 210 minutes are 19972 nonce per minute.

How much memory do you have in your GPU?
The most I can gen @ is 3000 on a higher end card.

The lower end ones with 1GB constantly fail with the error posted above.

It's a 3GB R9 280x... 

Hi guys,

I am aware of this issue. The fact is that I have to create two full size buffers on the GPU side to reduce thread-local memory consumption. Thus the memory amount needed on the CPU side has to be doubled to get an estimate of what is needed on the GPU side.
As an example, for a stagger size of 4000 you will need 1GB RAM on CPU side and more than 2GB (exactly (PLOT_SIZE + 16) x stagger) on GPU side (doesn't include here the local buffers and the kernel code itself).
Once I have a stable version (really soon ), I will work on this particular problem.

Please, consider also to test a version for nvidia cards! Afaik there isn't yet a user that was able to start the plot generator on nvidia gpus

The next version should work on both NVIDIA an AMD cards. Still need some test but sounds promising.

I'm down to be a tester with a HD7970, HD6950 2GB and HD6970. This 16TB is going take a long time to plot anyway, about 30+ days on a old Core i5 750 with all 4 thread plotting.

Can't wait, and bravo for the work you are doing.

can anyone explain why 1tb hdd gets 1 payment from cryptoport of 250 where a 300gb got 5 payments plus 3000 burst 10 mins after setting up rewards in wallet. .... is pool broken

wow!
whats your address? both for 1tb and 300gb

yeah i know, still x3 the cosumption vs 2.5 the nonce lol

how many TB on your pool?

Hope that you will release it quickly (at least when burst profitability is still good)

[Amph]

how many TB on your pool?

i dont know

probably numbers of your miner per 3tb as average

It's nearly working already. Need some more tests and two or three bugs correction ^^

I once two questions.

1. to the dcct Miner. I have the miner tested again over 4 hours on 2 linux dedicatet Server. With the dcct miner i become onyl no deadline messages on both systems.
With the java miner saw it in the last minute like this. And the most deadlines are under 1 mil .

"deadline":86659}
"deadline":898648}
"deadline":433123}
"deadline":701}
"deadline":166045}
"deadline":814765}
"deadline":14561}

But why i become with the dcct miner only no deadline messages?
I have no idea why.

2. How important is the latency when mining. Many miner run on systems with direct attached HDDs and other on VMs with NAS connection.
I have the feeling that the miner with NAS connection have a significantly higher deadline. The read performance is high enough.

So my question is, is the latency important or is it just important that the whole plot is read?

Quote myself. To many spam here.

Any answers for me?

i dont know

probably numbers of your miner per 3tb as average

276 x 3TB = 828TB

he had made another account and 5 mins or so got the 3k which he transfered there. but thats the 300gb 5 payments opoose to my 1 th 1 payment. follow the 3.5k u will see

My two questions? :p

[fivebells]

I keep getting this error now when I issue the "make" command:

Linking [bin/gpuPlotGenerator.exe]
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lopencl
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [bin/gpuPlotGenerator.exe] Error 1

I've tried Googling the error and see that a bunch of posts on the issue, but can't seem to correct this "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lopencl" error. Any suggestions?

The correction for that particular error is to use "-lOpenCL" instead (assuming you've installed opencl with "sudo apt-get install ocl-icd-libopencl1" first.)

However, I found the makefile is incompatible with linux.  It may work better if you change the "CC"s to "C++", but I haven't tried.  I did get it to compile with the single command

Code:

g++ -ansi -pedantic -W -Wall -std=c++0x gpuPlotGenerator.cpp -lOpenCL

I also had to do "( cd kernel && ln -s ../nonce.cl )", since it seems to expect to find the file there (In my version, it's in the root dir.)  Then the command "./gpuPlotGenerator ./plots/ 0 10 10 10 10" ran without errors (on an NVIDIA GTX Black.)

Edit: However, when I try something more substantial, like a stagger size of 64 and a thread num of 64, I get ">>> [-5] Error in synchronous read".  -5 is out of resources.

Edit 2:  Following the advice here, I added

Code:

			error = clFinish(commandQueue);
			if (error != CL_SUCCESS) {
			  throw opencl_error(error, "Error after running kernel");
			}

in between the clEnqueueNDRangeKernel and clEnqueueReadBuffer calls.  I get error -36, "invalid command queue", which apparently can still mean insufficient resources.  A titan black is pretty beefy, though.

I want to try out mining pool. To do so I need 1 Burst. Is there some kind soul who would help me out with 1 Burst? I will pay you back as soon as I can and yes, I tried faucet but hit enter before entering wallet address and now Im getting "Its too early" error.
