I'm seeing bad performance on Equihash for 1080 TIs with the same settings I previously used.  It went from 800-820 (Bminer 6.1 & 7.0) to 790-805 (Bminer 8.0).  Am I missing something?

We didn't change anything for Equihash mining. Can you provide us your current setting so that we can give it a try?
We’re pleased to release Bminer 8.0.0. The release provides supports for dual mining Ethereum with blake2s(Verge)/blake14r(Decred) algorithm coins.

Please see https://www.bminer.me for more details.

Happy mining!

Equihash speed is definitely lower on 8.0.0. (at least on console) compare to 7.0.0. Let's see pool hash rate in few hours.

For realbminer

As people has reported a drop in the hashrate for Equihash with version 8.0 could you please make available the previous versions so we can use the one that works better?

I have tried 8.0 and I get 3160 sols/s average with my 6 GTX 1070 Ti but can’t compare to previous versions if it is better or worse. I do can confirm the rejected shares rate has drop and the miner is more stable than before.

I think it will be nice it you could keep previous versions available to use so we can benefit from the one that works better for us, diferente OS, configs, etc

But based on my experience and people's comments I didn't see people complaining that the drop of the equihash mining speed.
I think Bminer 8.0.0 works perfectly on my rig as all its previous versions.

You can see at least 2 people are saying speed is lower. That is why I’d like to have previous versions available to compare myself and use the one that is better for me.

What works for you might work different for me and the other way around
