I'm getting 100% CPU utilization when using ccminer and mining Garlicoin...This is killing my hashrates on my 5 GTX 1070 Ti rig. (CPU: Intel G3920)


Is there a fix for this?

any update on this? seeing the same thing with 4x1070Ti's

Nothing major, but adding this helped a little: --lookup-gap=2 --cpu-affinity=o


Still doesn't explain why ccminer is pinning the CPU at 100%

Even my 7700K struggles with it...ccminer was pinning the i7 at over 80%

Again and I'm sorry, but this is probably the worst performing miner I've come across and this has been pretty much the response from this forum "lol meme coin  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ "

Same problem here guys...garlic is goood, but so consumption of CPU is killing me. Something better in .conf of ccminer setting 0 cpu intensity


Yeah, this forum appears to be dead. Neither --cpu-affinity nor --cpu-priority fix this issue. I'm willing to give some Garlicoin to anybody who has a workaround and/or finds another miner that will work with mining Garlicoin.

The process was using 60% of my I7700k,  I set the CPU-Priority to 0 and backed down on my OC & CPU voltage down and now it's using, a still unreasonable, 34%, but at-least it's not running hot.
