Xenoncat's solver integrated into nheqminer

@Sarath, can you give us your zec address for a donation? As soon as I manage to mine enough…
Sorry I don’t have BTC to send you atm

my ZEC address: t1aZzXYsF1gNRkxsgamcdzzyWxtheXU3zkz

sarah please i get the same power witn ocminer/nheqminer like with yours, i get almost the double yesterday before i compil your new version integrated AVX…
What i should do?

In console did you get any message like “Using AVX2”?

yes AVX2 with every Thread

I dont understand with my I7 6700K i get 32Sol/s and now just 17Sol/S :cry: :sob:

Try going back to old commit with following command.

git checkout c07ad755ee92cac025a96ee9eed95dfd2ef97775

On i5, I am not seeing any difference between this commit and latest code.
Make sure to wait at least 10 minutes for sol rate to be stabilised.

HO MY GOD thank you so much :slight_smile: 32Sol/s with my I7 Again now and 0 rejected share…

Thank you a lot :wink:

Try sudo apt-get upgrade -y

Spaceman, I’m in same boat as you with nheqminer. How did you get it running? For example
the following just says “command not found”

nheqminer_x64_AVX.exe -b

make sure you’re in nheqminer/nheqminer/build, run cmake, make then:

./nheqminer -l <insert server and port here> -u <insert zcash address here>.<insert worker here> -p <insert password here>

Same exact numbers here, this is great!

Thanks. I needed the ./ prefix

You’re not alone, also came across same problem.

Locate dir where boost was installed

$ sudo find / -type f -name 'libboost_*.so*'|grep lib|head -1

Then proceed to build

$ BOOST_ROOT=[dir where boost was installed goes here] cmake ..
$ BOOST_ROOT=[dir where boost was installed goes here] make -j`grep cores -c /proc/cpuinfo`

Hi, I was really interested to try your miner.

I’ve got a Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1241 v3 @ 3.50GHz (8 cores), with 6998.91 bogomips, it has AVX2 CPU instructions, but I’m only getting 7.3-7.4H/sec with your miner (and about 14.3Sol/sec). Is that a normal amount for this CPU?

Also, which statistic is the more useful metric to be watching, the hashes/sec, or the Sol/sec?

This is a quad core, not 8 core. It runs 8 threads though. 14.3 sounds about right I would think. I get about 12 sol/s with a 1245v2

Im running multiple Xenon servers and they range around ~3.5-4h/s with 2 cores
~2h/s per core

But shouldn’t the metric that is important to compare be the Hashes/sec?

H/sec and Sol/sec is mixed up in places. Here is what my computer says for the miner:
6.65667 H/s, 12.45 Sol/s

While flypool switches it and shows just 12.8H/s

Does it support AVX2?
