New in this version:
- Update to Chia 1.8.1
- Fixed remote compute not working on Windows
- Improved remote compute fault tolerance, requests now have a default timeout of 2 sec for connecting, and 5 sec for processing. In case of timeout another server is used instead. (however this is not yet applied to
chia_recompute_proxy)
New variables to tune remote compute timeout parameters on harvesters:
CHIAPOS_RECOMPUTE_TIMEOUT: timeout in milliseconds for processing a request (default = 5000)CHIAPOS_RECOMPUTE_CONNECT_TIMEOUT: timeout in milliseconds for connecting to a server (default = 2000)CHIAPOS_RECOMPUTE_RETRY_INTERVAL: interval in seconds how often to retry using a previously failed server (default = 100)
This release provides Chia Blockchain binaries to farm compressed plots created with the new plotters provided in this repository.
The compressed plot harvester and farmer are not compatible with the official Chia node, it only works together with the Gigahorse node. However it's possible to use a wallet from the official Chia repository, instead of the Gigahorse binary wallet.
Both NFT and OG plots are supported, as well as solo and pool farming (via the official pool protocol). Regular uncompressed plots are supported as well, so you can use the Gigahorse version while re-plotting your farm.
The dev fee is as follows:
- 3.125 % when using GPU(s) to farm compressed plots
- 1.562 % when using CPU(s) to farm compressed plots
- 0 % for regular uncompressed plots
The following packages are needed to run on Linux: sudo apt install ocl-icd-libopencl1
Make sure to choose the correct version for your system, see uname -m, usually it's x86_64. aarch64 is the same as arm64.
On Windows:
- You might have to install latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable: https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe
Note: Newer AMD GPUs starting with RX 6000 series do not work due to a driver bug, we have to wait for AMD to fix it. Vega series is known to still work when using an older driver with amdgpu-install --opencl=pal,legacy. RX 5000 series is unknown at this point.
Note: See limit-gpu-usage on how to select an OpenCL platform if you have multiple (excluding Nvidia).
