So are you sure that Loki and XMR have different hashrate results?

It looks like I was wrong as the only difference between Loki (RandomXL) and XMR (RandomX) is the RandomX program size (LOKI is larger).

Can you provide a clear info about RandomXL?

Thanks. Did you see anything incorrect with the command lines I used for the Dual Xeons (see above)?

--donate-level 0

Unless you have compiled XMRig from the source:

Code:

edit src/donate.h and set all to 0

constexpr const int kDefaultDonateLevel = 0;
constexpr const int kMinimumDonateLevel = 0;

the "--donate-level 0" will default to Donate Level 5%. The lowest you can go is 1% so that would be:

--donate-level 1

Also I do not set

Quote

--cpu-priority 5

If the system is idle then all cpu cores that you have configured for mining will be going full out even without setting cpu-priority. If you do something like web browsing then that will steal some CPU cycles from mining. I worry if you set cpu-priority to 5 (highest) you may not be able to run other applications because they won't have enough cpu cycles to start or if they do start they may be sluggish.

Also you do you think the Loki Hashrate is latent XMR hashrate? Ready to move across to XMR?

If they are smart they will.

As I stated earlier I am at a loss in why anyone is currently mining LOKI because the numbers I plug in even with free electricity you will be losing money mining it (because of the pool fee).

HELLO - Thanks for your feedback and concern about not being able to run other applications due to CPU UTILIZATION.

Actually I have the opposite problem. CPUs are running at 58% and so I have plenty of spare capacity. That figure includes running Google Remote Desktop without a problem.

So the CPU is under utilised. How can this be fixed please?

Task Manager show 58% CPU utilization: see https://drive.google.com/file/d/13gGY6jBrF9qpCdjsxpRhlQPoyhpDsqS7/view?usp=sharing

Half the threads are unused. See https://drive.google.com/file/d/1d41Y5YaIscVGkg-kXfpSCYvZvuv_VAEu/view?usp=sharing

If I change the number of threads with ' -t ' to say 13, 17, 24 or even 11 performance goes down and power consumption and CPU usage go up. There are 12 cores and 24 threads.

If I do not use a --cpu_priority with a value of 4 or greater the machine mines slower.

Is it possible to get more from these CPUs?

Thanks in advance.
