Re: [ANN]: cpuminer-opt v3.6.5, open source optimized multi-algo CPU miner
I am still curious about AVX2 performance on Ryzen. I have read that their implementation isn't native but I haven't
seen any performance comparisons. If anyone has a Ryzen I would be interested in a performance comparison of
AVX vs AVX2 on algos that have AVX2 optimizations.
If you can list the algos you would like tested I can try it out on both Ryzen R7 1700X and R5 1600 CPUs. Possibly on Threadripper too towards the end of summer if I talk myself into getting one.
Lyra2v2, Lyra2z and Deep have the most AVX2 and should see the biggest improvement. All the X algos, qubit, timetravel
and a few others also have varying amounts of AVX2 code.
