this one doesn't need cygwin. still needs python of course. only works with instances=1 (default).

sorry for late release..flu-bound  Embarrassed

i have experienced high cpu (i3) usage 100% when mining on 4x 1070   Cry

Nvidia's OpenCL drives implement busy waiting which leads to 100% core utilization per instance. I have changes that work on Linux, https://github.com/mbevand/silentarmy/pull/60 I don't know what is status of them being ported to Windows.

My Windows port includes a modified version of your patch, which seems to be working fine.

Actually, it works for my 280x, but doesn't work for my r9 390 cards  (and for other forum members 380 cards) , while Genoil miner works for all.
