Changes
- Dev pool is now selected from the list.
- Show new statistic info about hashrate after each new block.
- Another attempt to fix stratum issues from some users.
- Include prefetch for loading / storing data for Cryptonight (~1-2% improvement)
- Rewrite 2way Cryptonight. (~15-50% improvement)
- Include 2 new options for AVX2+:
----tune- Optimal tuning for 2way or 1way solving of Cryptonight. Takes ~34 minutes. Createstune_configfile that can be used later. It is recommended to run it with--benchmarkto disable any stratum and network communication. Can be used directly with your normal mining options and will start mining after the tuning process. After doing it once, use--tune-configafter that.
----tune-config=FILE- Use tuning config generated by--tunewhile mining.
The expected improvement compared to 1.1.2 -> 10-30%
Tuning process:
Step 1: ./cpuminer-INST -a gr --benchmark --tune
Step 2: ./cpuminer-INST -a gr YOUR_POOL_AND_WALLET --tune-config tune_config
