Ich bin gerade auch am neu plotten. Da mein i7-8700K mit 10 Threads 40000 nonces/min schafft habe ich mich für neu plotten entschieden bei meinen paar Platten, dauert ja eigentlich nur ca 12 Stunden für eine 8TB HDD.

Ich habe alles die selben Platten, Seagate Skyhawk 8TB.

Die 2 Externen über USB haben je ca. 12 Stunden gedauert, geschrieben wurde mit über 150MB/s

Nun plotte ich die Internen und das geht extrem langsam. Die CPU macht ganz normal 40000 nonces/min aber das schreiben dauert ewig lange weil nur 60MB/s.

Ich verwende diesen Plotter: https://github.com/JohnnyFFM/XPlotter/releases

Woran könnte es liegen, dass die externen Platten viel schneller gehen als die internen?

Lesen von den Internen geht ganz normal mit ca. 150MB/s. Kopieren von Platte zu Platte ebenso fast 200MB/s.

Und JA, ich starte den Plotter als admin.


Folgendes könnte helfen: Geräte-Manager > Laufwerke ... bei jedem Laufwerk auf Eigenschaften > Richtlinien und alles anhaken. Also Schreibcache aktivieren und Windows veranlastes Leeren deaktivieren.

[burstcoin-jminer-0.5.2-RELEASE]

Download:
https://github.com/de-luxe/burstcoin-jminer/releases

Notice:

Supports both, POC1 and POC2 plotfiles. This will also be the case after the fork.
However, to handle POC2 pre-fork and POC1 post-fork, twice the amount of data needs to be read and also more CPU and memory resources will be used.
The best case for a miner would be, to have converted up to 50% of plotfiles once the fork happens. That would cause the mining setup to behave exactly the same pre and post fork.

- Only use one type, POC1 or POC2 on one drive ('plotPath'), mixed will be skipped.
- Ensure your POC2 plotfiles do not have staggersize in filename , or they will be treated like POC1.

Wird es eine PoC2 Version vom xplotter bereits vor dem Fork geben? Gibt es da eine Zusammenarbeit mit Blago, dem Entwickler?
Ich frage, weil meine effektive Kapazität bei etwa 80% liegt (wegen Rundenzeit), da könnte ich schon einen Teil paar Tage davor beginnen ohne viel zu verlieren.
https://github.com/JohnnyFFM/XPlotter/releases


...
jminer kann angeblich PoC2 plots noch vor dem Switch und auch PoC1 plots nach dem Switch interpretieren.
...

Im testnet beides ausprobiert und auch blöcke gefunden ... von daher angeblich ... läuft :-)

[New Wallet version 1.2.9]

burstcoin-1.2.9


 Crashes with no error message when the "experimental" GPU accel option is enabled, after about 30 seconds of "hang".

 Doesn't matter what "manual" settings I use, or if I use the "auto" option.


Sad to hear that, you could try reduce this default values
(guess you ensured that not cpu was used for openCL)
Code:
burst.oclMemPercent=50
burst.oclHashesPerEnqueue=1000

A link to download blockchain would be great instead of waiting for hours.

HowTo use OpenCL/GPU for accelerated snyc. with blockchain

Open /conf folder within your burstcoin directory ...
Code:
../burstcoin-1.2.9/conf
Create a new file with name:
'nxt.properties'. (All settings made in there will overwrite the default.)

Open 'nxt.properties' in a text editor and add the following:

Code:
burst.oclVerify=true

The wallet will try to auto-detect the openCL device and platform.
If auto-detect does not work for you, configure it manually by adding

Code:
burst.oclAuto=false
burst.oclPlatform=0
burst.oclDevice=0

to 'nxt.properties', specify the platform and device you would like to use.
With a quite good GPU and depending on bandwidth, this will enable you to complete sync from block 0 within 1-2 hours!

Zugegeben, ich habe nie versucht einen Plotter zu schreiben und mich daher auch nicht ausführlicher damit beschäftigt ... Du hattest mich quasi schon überzeugt. Das 'Schaubild' ist in dem Punkt nicht ganz eindeutig, denke ich. Bin beruhigt, dass PoC nun doch nicht so einfach 'ausgehebelt' werden kann :-P Dennoch danke für Deine Schilderungen, hab wieder etwas gelernt.

    • Wenn es so einfach ist, warum ist noch niemand auf die Idee gekommen in den Jahren seit Burst existiert?
      Das ist allerdings eine Frage, auf die ich keine Antwort habe... Die einzige Vorstellung, in der mein Weltbild konsistent bleibt,
      ist dass Luxe und Blago und deren Kumpels schon länger so minen oder gemined haben. Es ist für mich völlig unvorstellbar, dass man
      so etwas wie jminer programmiert und nicht auf die Idee kommt, das einzubauen.
    ...

    Zunächst einmal, ich mine mit genau der jminer version, die auch öffentlich verfügbar ist. Vorstellbar oder nicht ... ich bin nicht auf diese Idee gekommen.
    Der openCL checker und kernel code im jminer ist übrigens nicht von mir, sondern von @burstcoin (org. burst dev)
    https://github.com/de-luxe/burstcoin-jminer/blob/master/src/main/java/burstcoin/jminer/core/checker/util/package-info.java

    Wenn ich alles richtig verstanden habe, müsste man sich schon beim Plotten entscheiden, welchen 'hebel' man nutzen möchte.
    Es brächte einen speziellen Plotter sowie ein neues 'Format' der Daten u.a. für das Speichern des 'final hash'.
    Außerdem brächte man einen speziellen Miner der mit diesem alternativem 'Format' umgehen kann.
    Finde den gesammten Gedanken sehr interessant. Geht aber natürlich gegen die eigentliche Idee von PoC.
    Daher sollte es eher das Ziel sein, PoC dahingehend zu härten und zu verbessern, dass es nicht mehr auf diese Weise 'ausgehebelt' werden kann.

    Dev, our wallet stuck every day several times per day for last months. Every day we have to restart it in order to make it sync further. The time on our server is precisely correct and synced well. We are using version 1.2.8. Please, advise - this issue need to be fixed.
    Sometimes we see something like that:
    2017-05-14 08:07:45 SEVERE: Block not accepted
    nxt.BlockchainProcessor$BlockOutOfOrderException: Invalid timestamp: 87026881 current time is 87026865, previous block timestamp is 87026844

    The SEVERE message just tells that someone found a block, with system time is too far out of sync, so the wallet/network does not accept it ... my experience is that this does not cause the wallet stuck, it is just a info.
    What i can suggest is, ensure you use a 64bit java ... 'java -version' should say it is 64bit, else it is not. Also it is a good idea to ensure, that enough resources,    particularly memory is available.
    If you keept your burst_db over several version updates ... it may be a good idea, to delete and re-sync it completely. If available you can active openCl support to do that quickly https://forums.burst-team.us/topic/751/howto-use-opencl-gpu-for-accelerated-snyc-with-blockchain
    Thats all i can suggest for now, hope one of that ideas helps to fix your issue, hard to guess what could be causing it, as the wallets i maintain run smothly over weeks and months.

    If the block timestamp is 79996588 and the current time is 79996560 ... it seams to be a block out of the future.
    But seriously, there were issues with nodes running their system-time out of sync ... after it was announced, the problem seams fixed.
    https://forums.burst-team.us/topic/4114/keep-your-system-time-in-sync-please
    I also added a note about sync time to the github release page.
    Basically if you find a block but you have your system time not in sync, it may not get accepted... like in this case.
    The timestamp has nothing to do with the deadline.

    Having issues with wallet. It does not sync (stuck at block 331809) also it gave error: "{"errorDescription":"Incorrect request","errorCode":1}" on usual requests which we do for years to it without any problems.

    Can not explain that "Incorrect request" as long i do not know the request details, but the API has not changed.
    Make sure the system time is synced ... follow the steps explained here, if the problem is not solved, yet.

    Sorry if the included jminer.properties leads to this confusion .... i updated OP and added a link to the github wiki page.
    As far as i can see you did everything correctly ...
    But to clarify ... nearly all settings have a implemented default value, so there is no need to configure more than you did.
    The walletServer is only used to get the last winner and not relevant for mining at all.
    There are some 'hidden' features and fine tuning, it is all described here: https://github.com/de-luxe/burstcoin-jminer/wiki/configure-jminer.properties

    Just want to mention 'showDriveInfo=true' to see how your single drives perform, may help to optimize your setup.
    Or 'listPlotFiles=true' (again requires a walletServer) Will list all your plotfiles on startup and show how many blocks they won etc.

    So nice to see your interest, play arround and ask if something is not clear ...
    This thread was not very active due to the fact that burst has a very active forum, and most ask questions there (https://forums.burst-team.us).

    it is very possible that it was my screen resolution combined with the word wrap, but literally the "example" of each parameter fell directly on the next line and character 1, appearing to a coder like me as a line of code outside of a comment block, lol. that is what led to most of my confusion was not realizing that lines were part of the preceding line as a remark

    so what i saw was something like this

    Code:
    //you can use the message method to include a private message, this is set later in this code, nearly 40 lines later, lol
    message='why did these words wrap at EXACTLY the wrong space break'

    .....and much later

    //here is the setting of the message method as spoke about before
    message='and here i am AGAIN, i imagine, since it is Java that this is the one going to the Jar, as it is the last one in the code block, but feel free to set the variable as many times as you like, lol'

    //end code block that my pc got a kick out of formatting is the PERFECT way to confuse



    I understand ... i will think about how to improve that ....
    I was using notepad++ or comparable to edit jminer.properties and therefore i did not see, that this may be a issue.
    For me it looks like this ...
