I have an issue with WAVI Mining.
I mine Wavi with a i5-8600K (6 physical cores) and cpuminer-opt from JayDDee/Joblo (last version).
My issue is that I have the same hashrate with 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 cores and I can't have better than 200 hash/s... this is near that I have with my Celeron G3900.

This computer is with Windows 10 but I have the same issue with Ubuntu (last kernel).

Any idea ?

maybe slow memory? One memory channel?
Yes, I have only one DDR4 DIMM, but you think that can be the issue ? A 8600k should make at least 400 h/s, the double that I have ?

I heard that in this algorithm the memory characteristics are important. Probably slow memory and one channel does not allow to fully open the CPU potential in this algorithm. I wonder what the developer will say in this regard

@WNC12k Where have you read this?

I have been mining fine with my Ryzen 1700 at ~600H/s for well over a month, but I had 2x8GB of Corsair Vengeance 3200Mhz and could only run them at 2666Mhz, reading that B-Die ram is the only one worthy on the Ryzen platform I finally bought some. Got the TEAM Dark Pro which are 3200Mhz and advertized as beeing B-Die.
It seems to be the case, runs fine... But now I can only mine at ~395H/s! I search for the info but it seems it hard to find really...  I'd like to understand what it is that I should be doing next... return it or try to tweak it?
Worst part is I sold them rightaway ( the corsairs )  so ... I need to deal with this now, any help would be appreciated guys!

This I know from the experience of using the algorithm YescryptR16, especially since it is exactly twice as fast. Check the speed on Yenten, there should be an increase of 2 times. If the speed has increased no more than twice from the current one, then this may be a problem in the memory settings, the dual-channel mode may not be enabled

I was mining Yenten also before and will get back to it soon... I am running dual channel, I just spent 20 minutes in the bios to check all the options available, though besides the sticks being faster @ 3200Mhz 14-14-14-31 vs 2666Mhz 16-16-18-36, nothing else is different... that I can see. If anything it should be faster no?



Now what is the speed on the YescryptR16?
