lolMinerのアップデート(ver. 0.21)
AMD系GPUでは依然としてOptiminerの方が高ハッシュレートですが、今後改善されるとの事。

Hey guys ... any idea what I did last two days?

Well I have: maybe its was completing version 0.21 Grin

Here are the download links:
Linux 64: Click me (v0.21)
Windows 64: Click me (v0.21)

I am quite happy with this ... why? Because it is like 0.2 should have been Wink

But see the release notes:

Introduced a complete new work thread model
The old solution caused massive problems with more then 2-4 Nvidia cards. Therefore I tried something new and what to say... I am happy with it. We tested it with one rig (I5) on 6-7 GPUs (GTX 1060) and what to say: It works

This also means that the old --enable-nv-hotfix switch does no longer exist. The new solution will also increase the hash-rate on Nvidia hardware slightly (2-5%).

New parameters: --set-short-stats-interval / --set-long-stats-interval
The new parameters can be set to control the verbosity of lolMiner-mnx. It sets the time between the status lines printed to n seconds. If you set 0 or a negative number this disables the corresponding output lines. As for the --set-long-stats-interval this also controls the duration of the benchmark mode (that you can access when passing no user / server data to the miner)

Benchmark mode is now offline
Well I manged that no connection is required to test the capacities. Before it was mining to dev fee account, now this works even on machines without network connection.

Extending the parameter range for --set-work-batch
As before the default (2) is ideal for Nvidia GTX 10XX cards. The Nvidia professional cards (P100, V100 and Titan V) may profit from setting this to 1. For AMD cards: every even number will work well, but the higher the better. I measured that setting the parameter to 8 or even 12 (max) gave about 15% extra performance over the default. Setting a higher value also increases the memory use, so if the miner crashed on startup it may be better setting the value lower.
Even with this setting optiminer is still faster on AMD (to be changed in future ^^), but lolMiner-mnx consumes less energy (may be changed when GPU is better utilized). As far as I can estimate the two are now almost on par for sol/s per watt for RX 570 / 580 series. Try on your own which is more profitable in your concrete setup.

Some small changes in the stratum connection
Nothing to talk much about. I hope to improve stability with this. Note that the miner will now quit when it is not authorized from the server because the credentials are wrong.

Unfortunately there are two known issue:
Miner will crash on startup with Intel drivers
Well somehow the Intel drivers do not like the new work handling. Have to dig deeper why. For Intel 0.2 is the better version right now.

Miner will not quite when a GPU is detected with 0 sol/s
This feature had its problems in 0.2 and now with the new handling it does not work. But it will come back (with a switch to turn it on / off) in next versions.

Hope you also like the new version Cheesy

-------
And here the current statistics:
Hashrate of all lolMiners out there: ~6.6 Msol/s
Market share: ~ 10,1 %

Linux GTX1060 ×６環境にて完全動作確認しました、optiminerより約20%速度アップ、動作ともに脱帽です

作者様のバージョンアップの速さ、にAnon11073様の紹介の更新速度に感謝します。 Wink
