1.1.3

Changes

  • Dev pool is now selected from the list.
  • Show new statistic info about hashrate after each new block.
  • Another attempt to fix stratum issues from some users.
  • Include prefetch for loading / storing data for Cryptonight (~1-2% improvement)
  • Rewrite 2way Cryptonight. (~15-50% improvement)
  • Include 2 new options for AVX2+:
    -- --tune - Optimal tuning for 2way or 1way solving of Cryptonight. Takes ~34 minutes. Creates tune_config file that can be used later. It is recommended to run it with --benchmark to disable any stratum and network communication. Can be used directly with your normal mining options and will start mining after the tuning process. After doing it once, use --tune-config after that.
    -- --tune-config=FILE - Use tuning config generated by --tune while mining.

The expected improvement compared to 1.1.2 -> 10-30%

Tuning process:
Step 1: ./cpuminer-INST -a gr --benchmark --tune
Step 2: ./cpuminer-INST -a gr YOUR_POOL_AND_WALLET --tune-config tune_config
