Anyone else having an issue with the --intensity setting or am I doing it wrong? No matter what I set it at, my GPU is around a 25% load.

I have a single 1070ti Founders Edition and I've tried "--intensity=0:0.5" all the way up to "--intensity=0:0.95" and it's still around a 25% load.


Try run with config file, without additional command line params.

For example (from my config file):
Code:
intensity=2:0.90

and run
Code:
./zm --cfg-file=zm.cfg

Hello
any solution for
recv failed: 10054
reconnecting ..
couldnt find device 0


Code:
WSAECONNRESET
10054

Connection reset by peer.

    An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. This normally results if the peer application on the remote host is suddenly stopped, the host is rebooted, the host or remote network interface is disabled, or the remote host uses a hard close (see setsockopt for more information on the SO_LINGER option on the remote socket). This error may also result if a connection was broken due to keep-alive activity detecting a failure while one or more operations are in progress. Operations that were in progress fail with WSAENETRESET. Subsequent operations fail with WSAECONNRESET.

You have network problem. For example try another pool.

claymore / ethdcrminer64  sorted by physically bus-ID.    sorted by physically bus-ID

It's right way, but is exception, not rule =)

P.S. if I remember correctly - nvidia-settings under Windows (nvcplui.exe) sorted by name.
Under linux - as defined in sections "Device" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but I not sure. I check it later.

I have checked and confirmed - nvidia-settings show GPU as defined by Identifier "DeviceN" (where N in 0,1,2 and so on) in section "Device".

For example:
Code:
Section "Device"
    Identifier     "Device0"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    VendorName     "NVIDIA Corporation"
    BoardName      "GeForce GTX 750"
    BusID          "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier     "Device1"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    VendorName     "NVIDIA Corporation"
    BoardName      "GeForce GTX 950"
    BusID          "PCI:4:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier     "Device2"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    VendorName     "NVIDIA Corporation"
    BoardName      "GeForce GTX 1050Ti"
    BusID          "PCI:5:0:0"
EndSection
show GPU order 750 - 950 - 1050

Code:
Section "Device"
    Identifier     "Device0"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    VendorName     "NVIDIA Corporation"
    BoardName      "GeForce GTX 750"
    BusID          "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier     "Device2"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    VendorName     "NVIDIA Corporation"
    BoardName      "GeForce GTX 950"
    BusID          "PCI:4:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier     "Device1"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    VendorName     "NVIDIA Corporation"
    BoardName      "GeForce GTX 1050Ti"
    BusID          "PCI:5:0:0"

error in linux in parametr --dev

why GPU 0 is free??  and GPU 2 is working ?


nvidia-smi show devices as is, sorted by physically bus-ID.
All know miners (and zm too) show devices sorted alphabetically by his NAME.

For example - I has 3 gtx - 750, 950 and 1050ti.
Code:
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| NVIDIA-SMI 390.30                 Driver Version: 390.30                    |
|-------------------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
| GPU  Name        Persistence-M| Bus-Id        Disp.A | Volatile Uncorr. ECC |
| Fan  Temp  Perf  Pwr:Usage/Cap|         Memory-Usage | GPU-Util  Compute M. |
|===============================+======================+======================|
|   0  GeForce GTX 750     On   | 00000000:01:00.0  On |                  N/A |
| 42%   69C    P0    35W /  38W |    687MiB /   979MiB |     99%      Default |
+-------------------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
|   1  GeForce GTX 950     On   | 00000000:04:00.0 Off |                  N/A |
| 41%   72C    P0    73W /  75W |   1599MiB /  2002MiB |    100%      Default |
+-------------------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
|   2  GeForce GTX 105...  On   | 00000000:05:00.0 Off |                  N/A |
| 56%   72C    P0    N/A /  75W |   3167MiB /  4040MiB |     94%      Default |
+-------------------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
Look at columns 1 and 4 (ID and Bus-ID) - devices sorted by Bus-ID - 0:01 0:04 0:05


zm give next output -
Code:
2018-05-24 13:26:05|#  zm 0.6
2018-05-24 13:26:05|#  GPU0 + GeForce GTX 1050 Ti      MB: 4040  PCI: 5:0
2018-05-24 13:26:05|#  GPU1 + GeForce GTX 750          MB: 979   PCI: 1:0
2018-05-24 13:26:05|#  GPU2 + GeForce GTX 950          MB: 2002  PCI: 4:0
2
Devices sorted by name - 1050 750 950

For some example -
Code:
NeoScrypt CUDAminer v1.0.1 compiled with GCC 4.8 using CUDA 6.5

GPU #0: SM 6.1 GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
GPU #1: SM 5.0 GeForce GTX 750
GPU #2: SM 5.2 GeForce GTX 950

New Version 0.6.1
...
- improve performance on linux systems by ~2%

You apply 2 queue per GPU, right? Make please option for switch between old/new modes for selected card. For example - like "dev=0,1,2" for old mode and "dev=0,0,1,2,2" for new mode (card 0 and 2 - 2 thread/GPU, card 1 - 1 thread/GPU)

Also, with v6.1:
gtx750 - SM5.0 - same performance, +1..2 sols/sec
gtx950 - SM5.2 - yes, +2% faster
gtx1050ti - SM6.1 - 1-2% SLOWER  Shocked

Rollback to v6.0  Sad

Thx for reporting performance measurements.

+1-2 Sol/s on an gtx750 are about +2%.

gtx1050ti / sm6.1: There is nothing special about sm6.1 in respect to this optimization. That's not what I'm getting.

Could you pls provide the log files of your tests?
A run of 5min (for 0.6/0.6.1) should be enough on a previously cooled down system.

Sorry, I was wrong. I retest again (some hours) and get next average values:

gtx750       67   ->  67
gtx950      153  ->  155     ~1.5%
gtx1050ti  191  ->  192
total          412 ->  415

Hi Guys, I'm having a few problems with my DSTM miner and wondered if any of you have come across the error before. Unfortunately my mining keeps getting interrupted every minute or so with the following error:

recv failed: 10054

https://ibb.co/f5Dn6n

any help/suggestions would be much appreciated, I have already tried alternate pools so I have ruled that out. I may try another miner but from what I've heard DSTM is the best for equihash so i'd much rather stick with it. Any ideas??
WiFi is evil for mining.

Yes. Wireless connection good for tits, cats, and stupid youtube movies. For stable works - wire only, without variants.

"10054 - Remote host drop established connection". This is network trouble. You use GPRS/3G/4G?

Can someone please post the hashrate for a 750ti.  thx  Smiley
55 sol/s for the 750 non Ti at minimal settings (30 W) in Linux.

Ha, I too think that my 750 consumes 38 watt (as say nvidia-smi). But wattmeter show other value - ~60 watt  Sad

67 sol/s (with "intensity=1:0.95" in zm.cfg) and 72 with full load. (+135 core, +0 mem)

Also:
gtx950 - 152 sol/s (+200 +500)
gtx1050Ti - 192 (+200 +500)

windows 10
Driver version latest 391.35
Memory Clock 650
Core Clock default 0

Try Win7/x64 or linux (for simplest way - HiveOS, download image and make bootable flash-stick).
And check BIOS settings - PCIe bus clock

Will your parameter settings?
My GTX 1060 3GB = 260 Sol/s? Huh

I think this is stock params. 1050Ti = 180 sol/s with default settings ("from box") and 192 with +200 core +500 memory.

260 for 1060 - too low rate. What you have OS and drivers? PCIe clock has right value in BIOS?

This was already requested, zm will support socks5 in future versions most likely.

Hello DSTM.

Could you please change GPU sorting method ? We need what GPUs are sorted by physical bus index (it matches AfterBurner list of GPUs)

+1. I too support this request.
