we need a pill (optimized memory timings) for X22i algo.

CRYPTO-MINING NEEDS A PILL--

The market is a shade away from being futile.

But seriously, I thought the chain-type algos (x16r, x16s, x22i, etc) were mostly processor bound, and high energy. How would a blanket memory timing help over various chained algorithms? --scryptr

some of these algos are memory reliant, it would increase the overall hash-rate.

CORE-INTENSIVE ALGOS MAY PERFORM POORLY--

The pill works for ETH by design, and helps with Monero variants, but some algos like ProgPow perform poorly with the Pill. With the chained algos, the pill would need to detect which algo is being mined and switch ON or OFF accordingly. This may not be practical to code.

If the algo's performance is neutral to the pill, it could remain active. I game with the Pill, and mine Monero after gaming. The Pill just runs, with no problems detected. I don't code enough to actually know what is possible. --scryptr

I tried with ETH Enlargment pill with Phoenix miner - it doesn't work. On x16r it doesn't work as well. But it works perfectly with Claymore miner while Ether mining.
