I have solved a bug wich causes the cpu to use alot of cpu. Now x11 is hashing with 0-1% cpu usage. Fixed in the unpublished spreadcoin fork for now, but will submitt to github later. Less CPU-> less energy and more stable hashrates.
A noticable difference when using the computer while mining.
Hi sp_.
We need the spreadx11 opt. miner asap, dif. is skyrocketing...

So is the price. 600% in one month. This coin is gold Smiley

I will test on my 970/980 rig on friday/saturday and release the first beta to the donators on sunday.

That will be most appreciated.  I had definitely noticed slugishness issues when my 2x750Ti would switch from Quark to X11.  Fortunately, it has been staying in Quark most of the time lately.

@ sp_

Is qubit algo broken after release 24?

I get an error message "stratum extranonce id was not correct" and all "booo's" 

If you are going to leave your BTC on an exchange please send it to this address instead 1GH3ub3UUHbU5qDJW5u3E9jZ96ZEmzaXtG, I will at least use the money better than someone who steals it from the exchange. Thanks Wink

Submitted a fix on the cpu usage. x11 is now using 0-1% cpu on a slow celeron. Quark is up another 50KHASH 750ti. !

I tried v31, my fast rig is again stable, my slow rig crashes after 100-200 accepts.  I lowered the intensity to 18 (and lost 1mh/s performance!) and it was the same thing... crash.   I run stock clocks, period.
Both rigs are headless.  I plugged into the slow rig and booted normally, and noticed some error messages about nvidia driver 346.35.  It was released on 17 JAN 15, yesterday.  I think that I will have to purge the drivers and then re-install.  For Linux, v346.35 is a long-term release, no longer a beta, as 346.22 was.  I may burn the whole OS and move to 14.10, which is now supported by 346.35.      --scryptr

Please try a new build from github, the cpu usage is gone, and I have added more cuda cleanupcode. power should be down abit. cpu usage on x11, x13 was 10-20% in release 31 but reduced to 0-1% in the github version

v31b TYPO-

THAT IS THE FIX.  It compiled and has just started running.  Initial impression:  Loss of 500kh/s for the rig from v31a at its fastest.  If this version runs smoothly and remains stable, I don't care.  Stability is more important.  I am right on 75 accepts and 100%  error-free.      --scryptr

EDIT:

It ran for a couple hundred accepts, and then dropped to double-digit kh/s.  A couple cards would resurge to 6mh/s, and then drop immediately.  When is sent "^c", I got a "SIGINT received" response, but the program would not close.  I have seen this pattern before in previous builds.   

I am going to save the config files and important data, and move to 14.10, as the 146.35 drivers now support Utopic Unicorn.  I may have junk in my OS that is a factor.       --scryptr

From release 31 to the 1/20/2015 commit, for quark I'm seeing a drop of 25 kH/s gain of 50 kH/s per card (750Ti), and a large drop in CPU usage (from ~16% to ~1%).  Great stuff.

Yes, The miner starts well at first, but then the hashrate is dropping over time. I reverted the sync code. Now quark is using 3-5% cpu, but the hash is more stable.(hopefully)

You probobly need a modded driver. I usually have 2-3 amd cards, and fill the rest of the slots with nvidia cards. Good for the powersupply as well.

This looks interesting. 16 GPU's on one motherboard using 4 PCI-e slots.

http://amfeltec.com/products/gpu-oriented-cluster/

But Might have to modify the driver...

EDIT: just checked the price.. £140 for pciE splitter 1->4 slots. Bether to buy another motherboard. Not worth it.

sp - i checked these out a while ago - even contacted the people ...

this will work ONLY if the bios of the motherboard allows it to ...

most standard bios only allows ( its own memory limitation ) 8 gpu's per motherboard ...

this limitation is only compensated when you have motherboards with enhanced bios - like some of the supermicro motherboards - that are designed to have more than 8 gpus via a bios augmentation ...

if you are familiar with reprogramming bios - then you will be able to recompile the kernels of the operating systems alongside the a hacked / reprogrammed bios ...

but for now - if you are using standard motherboards that are the 'norm' these days - then the limitation usually always ends up being 8 gpus ...

you can definitely add more ( i have had 12 gpus on the one system in linux ) and the os ( in my case ) could see ALL the gpus - but could only use 8 at a time due to this limitation ...

if there was no limitation - i would be running them right this minute Wink

btw - the supermicro dual xeon boards that can handle 12gpus are all around $600-700AUD ... not worth the effort for mining unless you have the cash for it as a project ...

I have solved a bug wich causes the cpu to use alot of cpu. Now x11 is hashing with 0-1% cpu usage. Fixed in the unpublished spreadcoin fork for now, but will submitt to github later. Less CPU-> less energy and more stable hashrates.
A noticable difference when using the computer while mining.
Hi sp_.
We need the spreadx11 opt. miner asap, dif. is skyrocketing...

So is the price. 600% in one month. This coin is gold Smiley

I will test on my 970/980 rig on friday/saturday and release the first beta to the donators on sunday.

Can I ask how long do you intend to keep the miner exclusive to donators?

I think enough time to do not hurt the SPR coin as he stated before.
