Re: [ANN] Bminer: a fast Equihash miner for CUDA GPUs (5.3.0)
@realbminer
Today there was a problem with the zenmine.pro mining pool,...don't know what was up but after investigating I've found out that bminer still has some sort of connection problems...see the picture below,...all this time the GPU was at full load,...although it didn't had a proper connection to the pool and I couldn't see it on the minning pool. Then I've switched to ewbf/dstm, both miners connected immediately and are working properly?
I use following in a batch file:
This is a huge issue! I've lost at least half of the hashrate because of this bug.

Code:
-max-temperature 80 -max-network-failures 5 -gpucheck 0 -watchdog=false

Why are you using 'max-network-failures 5' & 'watchdog=false'? Shouldn't you leave it at the default so it will continue to try to recover the connection, especially if you are complaining of a bug saying it's not connecting?
The documentation on bminer.me states:
Quote
-max-network-failures Default: -1 Description: Number of consecutive attempts that Bminer tries to recover from network failures. Set to -1 to keep on recovering.
-watchdog Default: true Description: Automatic restart to recover from hung GPUs. Bminer exits itself in case of errors if watchdog is disabled.
-watchdog Default: true Description: Automatic restart to recover from hung GPUs. Bminer exits itself in case of errors if watchdog is disabled.
