on GitHub

Changes

• General - Use the latest cpuminer-opt branch.
• MSR ~2-5% increased performance. Enabled by default. Use -y to disable it.
  -- Linux -- Seamless. Requires root privileges.
• Large Pages ~15-20+% increased performance.
  -- Linux -- Seamless. Requires root privileges.
  -- Windows -- Prior one-time configuration required. Follow this 15s tutorial: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/database-engine/configure-windows/enable-the-lock-pages-in-memory-option-windows
  A system restart is required after successful configuration.
• SSE2 - ~2-3% increase in performance compared to the official miner.
• AVX - ~10-15% increase in performance.
• AVX2 - ~15-25% increase in performance. Multiple binaries. Performance Light -> Heavy depending on the available L3 cache on the CPU. Big CPUs like Zen3, Threadrippers, and Xeons are most likely to benefit from Heavier implementation.
  -- Heavey - All 2way
  -- Medium - Mixed SSE & 2way
  -- Light - SSE
• Benchmark functionality -- 30s+ benchmark that should give the real average performance of the GR algorithm. Especially useful to test which binaries might be better for your CPU.
• Adjustable Dev Fee -- -d X to set donation percentage. Defaults to 1. Can be disabled in the source code.
