The HT Assist was in fact enabled, and C1E was disabled, swapped those.

I went ahead and changed the power control from 6 to 1 successfully and results for all 4 CPUs are [9073H/s]

A performance increase to be sure for the first 3 CPUs, however I suspect there may be some issues with that last CPU, or possibly a memory placement/configuration issue.

Running the test again now at psmax 6 results a slightly higher performance overall, simply because that last CPU isn't reporting so low [9266H/s]

Does that mean that "HT assist" was already disabled in the BIOS?

I completely forgot to check this honestly - the R&D facility is 30min away so I will have to head back tomorrow and check this setting, most of the time I am just remoting into these servers. Based on the results below I think this may in fact be the culprit to that low hash rate on the last CPU.

I have discovered that TurionPowerControl binary can be downloaded here:

https://github.com/mh0rst/turionpowercontrol/releases

Just download the tpc-0.44-rc2.tar.gz file (or tpc-0.44-rc2.zip) and unzip it.

In the tpc-0.44-rc2/bin/Ubuntu-amd64 folder you will see the TurionPowerControl binary


I found that yesterday and still didn't make a difference on 18LTS unfortunately.



And now for the latest update:  I went ahead and put 16LTS on a USB thumb drive (great idea don't know why I didn't think of it sooner) BUT I accidentally flashed the image to the hard drive array instead of booting off the USB, oh well, that's what these servers are for right now. So now I can compare 16 vs 18 head to head if there are any subtle differences in OS versions, but I digress.

I ran the baseline test again with all 4 CPUs and got slightly better results [9388H/s] - I even went back after and set psmax to 6 again to check and got [9395H/s] so it's fairly consistent and repeatable.

@MinersRus

Unfortunately no, I am unable to improve that last processor but I am still working on things. No luck getting TurionPowerControl working either. Will update if I get anything different (positive or negative). If anyone reading has any ideas on how to get Turion installed on Ubuntu 18 please let me know  Wink - I'd hate to have to downgrade these servers to 16, but if I have to I will to see if anything changes.

I have all the updates applied and that includes build-essential. No luck and I am contemplating re-installing with Ubuntu 16LTS just to see if that's the case. TurionPowerControl hasn't been updated in years.

I just double-checked and I had these R815's updated to Ubuntu 18 LTS, that might be why I'm having issues.

Results from testing (running hugepages at 9600 if that matters). Some interesting results testing all 4 CPUs as I noticed the last couple virtual machines slowed down considerably, dropping to 7 threads didn't help and reduced the overall score.

Re: Building Cheap Miners : My "Secret"

I am "the friend" - and after reading everything I will be performing some more tests to help provide a more accurate representation of the servers I have ( 2 x R815's each with 64GB of RAM and 4 x Opteron  6276 running Ubuntu 16).

Quick question, as I am learning my way around "server CPU" mining and relatively new to this (been GPU mining for years). How do I test all 4 CPU's together, in addition to a single and dual for comparison? (Just posting the commands is fine, but I prefer to also learn what they do and why/how to use them).  Thanks!

ANNOUNCEMENT

As we promised, this week we releasing our 1st non-blockchain based product and one of the main purpose of our existence –  P2P XDNA Foundation platform!

https://foundation.xdna.io/

From now we transfer it from close alpha to open alpha test and we will improve it with a help of special testers and our precious community

How to help us?
1  Go to platform
2  Test it functionality, find an non-optimized feature
3  Go to #foundation_alpha (discord) and leave your report, also copy it and send to foundation@xdna.io
4  Mention your XDNA wallet and we will send a small reward for helping us improve our platform

We still need to implement lots of features to make this place a real comfort and easy to use.

We prepared a special Platform ROAD MAP – you can view it at foundation home page:

Let me introduce our next steps in 2018:
  • New exchange
  • Paper wallet release
  • Platform optimization from RM
  • 1st half report
  • Legal-entity registration
  • 2 new partners
  • Release of new side blockchain project! Non from XDNA universe, but developed by our team!

Also as mentioned by Vak,
Another way to get rewards for testing:
1. Register on the platform, go through a full verification (not necessarily authentic).
2. Ask for help. Want to raise funds for some kind of purchase? Well, let it be so.
3. When submitting an application, specify the amount not more than 50 XDNA. Watch your application.
4. After collecting funds (and they will be collected) you will receive a reward.

Be strong with XDNA!

This is probably one of the most important reasons why I not only added XDNA to our pools, but I mine it personally. I love to see projects that think outside the box and have goals beyond just making a mine-able coin because everyone else is. Good luck team! Let em know if I can help!
