So i started cpu mining riecoin again just for the heck of it, i have a dual Xeon E5-2670 so 16 threads, 32 cores, I am using xptminer2 from the riecon.ovh site but i only seem to get about 80% usage when using -t 31 (as it does cores + 1.
Is there a better miner to get closer to 100% efficiency?
[EDIT]
Am i able to use
https://github.com/gatra/cpuminer-rminerdFor riecoin?
Try running two instances with -t 15, pinning each to a socket or NUMA node. Pinning the miner to each numa node has worked well for me, especially on dual socket Xeon E5 v3/v4 CPU's.
do you have example config?
i have 2 batch files m1.bat and m2.bat
each runs my miner with 24 cores,
first one affinity is set to the first core, teh second miner affinity is set to the second core.
so my batch file to lauch both miners is
start /affinity FFFFFF m1.bat
start /affinity FFFFFF000000 m2.bat
note: the affinity is set for a 48 core machine, you will have to adjust it for what ever number of cores you have in your CPUs
