Have played around with excavator today:

Added 5 workers per card (1080ti) with M=1 equihash algo:

  • It goes max 1000h/s per card (I think this value is just an illusion)
  • Hangs a little at around 800h/s per card (I wish this value could be sustainable)
  • Lowers down to 660h/s and stays stable

M=2 -> crashes
M=0 -> achieves max 650h/s
M=1 and 6 workers per card -> crashes

Here is my json:

Any plans to investigate your equihash algorythm? I think there is room for improvement and I know you can make it Smiley
