What is important to mine ARO?
As you know cryptonight is L3 cache important.. rule number of cache / 2 = Threads you should use. So huge cache L3 most important. RAM 4 GB enough.
Is there any rule with ARO algo? To look for appropriate equipment
I would like to know this also.
It seems to like recent Intel CPU's. My 8 core Ryzen 1700 is only 40-50% faster on 14 threads than my laptop's 2 core i7 7500U running 4 threads... both on AVX2 miner.
I have an old 6 core Xeon E5645 that also doesn't run faster on 11 threads than that i7 7500u - 9-10 H/s. No AVX, though.
Ok, so basically ARO is very memory intensive. A lot of discussion has happened within our Discord channel on the benefits of Dual and Quad channel memory, with most people getting higher h/s using Quad channel. Memory speed is also crucial, overclocked memory has proven better results, however runs the risk of more rejected shares.
Newer Intel CPU's do better, agreed, however again it all comes down to memory bandwidth/speed/channels.
I am not highly knowledgeable in this area, so if you do want more detailed information, maybe drop into our Discord and talk to some of the guys who have had hands on experience.
