Well, after running great for about one day, it came up with errors again today.
Don't know what's up, but even if I restart bminer, it doesn't want to work.
Here is a logfile after just starting:

DSTM and EWFB work without problems.
Any ideas (running version 5.2.0)

Run for two days and still cannot reproduce the error.

Have you tried different mining pool?
Not yet, no.
This pool gives me the best payout at the moment. I've been running Ewfb miner for days on it without problems.
Since it stopped mining with Bminer I switched to dstm and its been running great with about the same reported hash rates.

Would love to run Bminer, if it was faster or if it had lower fee than the others. But stability problems is a much bigger concern than slightly higher hash rates.

Thought I would post some of my findings here.

Have been using EWBF miner for some time, using 4x EVGA 1070Ti's.
Settings are 63% power limit, gpu +200, mem +700, fans on 50%.
With EWBF and the --fee 0.1 option on Zclassic, I get around 2030 Sol/s.
Temps are around 55C.

Same settings on DSTM,  2071 Sol/s, which is around 4.6 Sol/W

Same settings on Bminer, 2140 Sol/s. So this is indeed the fastest.

However, I get an error after about an hour of mining (sometimes shorter, other times it takes longer).
It says:
Get error: The semaphore timeout period has expired, resseting in 5 seconds.
Connection failed due to External host closed the connection

It then reconnects and starts mining again, however the results are not accepted and accepted shares stay the same.
http://i66.tinypic.com/2qjm42b.jpg

This has happened a few times now, so I reverted back to DSTM.

Any ideas on this? Error from my side, does it have something to do with the pool (miningspeed), or is it a Bminer issue (as it doesn't happen with DSTM or EWBF)?



Sounds like a bug in bminer. Will look into it.
Great.
This was with version 5.1.0

Version 5.2.0 gave me this error after about a day of happy hashing:

DSTM and EWFB work without problems.
Any ideas (running version 5.2.0)

One of my machines stopped sending shares for some reason, miner reported hashing speeds in command prompt, but there were no "accepted share" messages and no hashrate on poolside, after manual miner restart all came back to normal. Can't give you any details because I didn't set up logging into a file, but I did it now, so if that happens again, I'll provide a log.
I had kind of the same problem (see my post above).
Solved it with version 5.2.0.
But could be a completely different problem.

Well, I've managed to solve my problem:
Code:
Get error: The semaphore timeout period has expired, resseting in 5 seconds.
Connection failed due to External host closed the connection"
by updating to 5.2.0

Did some tests, compared to DSTM.
Settings: 4x EVGA 1070Ti on 63%, core +200, mem +700

DSTM showed 2070 Sol/s. Average last 4h hashrate on Miningspeed 2060 Sol/s
Bminer 5.2.0, 2140 Sol/s. Average last 4h hashrate on Miningspeed 2130 Sol/s  (0.2% rejected shares)

Looks very promising till now.
Thanks!

This has happened a few times now, so I reverted back to DSTM.
