As promised I uploaded a simple benchmark script for excavator - https://github.com/nicehash/excavator/blob/master/excavator-benchmark.py

Python 3 is required!

Examples:

1. benchmark algorithm 1 on device 0
python excavator-benchmark.py --excavator path_to_excavator -a algo1 -d 0 -b

2. benchmark all algorithms on all devices
python excavator-benchmark.py --excavator path_to_excavator -b

3. benchmark on nicehash pool (default is eu server)
python excavator-benchmark.py --excavator path_to_excavator -u btc_address

Default time for benchmark is 300 seconds per algorithm, you can modify it with -t parameter.

Any way to edit the script to use multiple workers? It would be nice if this could be dynamic based on the algo.

Workers are added at line 210. You can copy the append command multiple times or add a for loop to run multiple workers per device.

Example #1: To add two workers per device change

Code:

for dev in devices:
workers.append(self.add_worker(alg_id, dev[0], algo[1:]))

to

Code:

for dev in devices:
workers.append(self.add_worker(alg_id, dev[0], algo[1:]))
workers.append(self.add_worker(alg_id, dev[0], algo[1:]))

To make it algorithm specific you could always check which algorithm is processed at the moment.

Example #2: Add two workers only when running equihash:

Code:

for dev in devices:
workers.append(self.add_worker(alg_id, dev[0], algo[1:]))
if algo[0] == "equihash":
workers.append(self.add_worker(alg_id, dev[0], algo[1:]))
