Hello @dstm
I really like your miner, it's really stable compared with EBWF's, and when it does crash (my hardware issue), it does so softly, allowing me to do a restart of the system. With EBWF's I couldn't kill it not even with -9. I had to power cycle the hardware.
However I do have the following issues:
- When using more than 10 GPUs the CPU is overloaded.
* if it helps I can live with a longer time between refreshes, say 15 - 30 seconds
* when that happens most of the share get rejected as invalid, see pool screenshot
* do you think you can improve the CPU load performance, if not do you have any suggestion on what upgrade I should focus on? Cores, speed?
+ by my calculations I would need to use an i5 or i7 to be able to scale to 19 GPUs
- an API would be immensely appreciated
* No more having to stay logged in to monitor when one GPU died (and I could track down which one is the culprit)
* Get better statistics for optimization purposes.
Hardware:
- Asus B250 Mining Expert
- 10 x GTX 1070
- Intel Celeron G3900
- 2 GB DDR4 2133
- nvdia-smi -pl 90
On the left 12 x GTX 1070 GPUs, on the right 10 x GTX 1070 GPUs.
