"If no parameters are provided, device specific defaults are used (M=1). We suggest using two workers per device when running equihash with mode 0*, otherwise use one worker per device.
* To manage intensity of this algorithm, we suggest you to run only one worker to reach low intensity and multiple (suggest 2) workers per device to reach optimal speed."
1 GTX 1080 GPU is the setup
from what i know p-0 is enabled by default , do i edit the "default_command_file.json" and put 2 exactly like this
{"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["0","0"]},
{"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["0","0"]}
Does this command give the low intensity and the optimal speed?
Thank-you
Short explanation of M parameter for equihash:
M parameter can be set to either 0, 1 or 2 and determines which kernel will be executed (currently, we have 3 different implementations for equihash).
The highest speed can be reached with M=1 parameter (default). Run one worker per device (multiple workers are suggested to be used only when running equihash with M=0 parameter).
If you want to run equihash on low intensity and still reach a decent speed (lower compared to M=1) then use M=0 parameter and use one worker per device.
Hash speed: M=0 (1 worker) < M=0 (2 workers) < M=1 (1 worker)
Intensity: M=0 (1 worker) < M=0 (2 workers) == M=1 (1 worker)
To summer up - best option for 1080 is M=1 with one worker.
