Miner fee reduced by 0.25% while mining on Flockpool.com
Come, check it out and visit our Discord !

Remember that you can reuse the tune_config and config.json
files from version 1.2.X by copying them into the 1.2.4.1 main folder.

Alder Lake (12th gen intel) users are highly recommended to retune the miner.
Make sure E cores number was detected properly!

Fix:

  • Fix problem with miner reconnecting after donation to the same pool.
    Occurred if the user switched to the backup pool at least once.
  • Fix problem with Large Pages, AVX, or below while tune-full was set to true.
  • HOTFIX Fix problem with backup stratum. Could cause miner to not start properly.

General:

  • Update startup scripts to accommodate changes in Windows 11.
  • Use new avx2-sha-vaes on Alder Lake.
  • Correct some output inconsistencies while tuning.

Improvements:

  • Add improvements for Alder Lake tuning. ~6% (12900k) increase in hashrate.
    Retuning of the system is REQUIRED to get improved performance.

Flags:

  • Add --ecores=N - Specify the number of E cores of the CPU. Miner will try to
    autodetect. It will show the predicted number. Specifying it incorrectly or on the
    platform that does NOT support E cores (Intel Alder Lake) can lead to
    reduced performance.
  • Add --disable-rot=LIST - Comma separated list of rotations to not be used
    while mining. For testing purposes only! Using this for normal mining WILL
    reduce your overall average hashrate!! Does not apply to the tuning process.

On newer Linux systems (Ubuntu 22.04+) please use cpuminer-gr-1.2.4.1-x86_64_ubuntu_22.04.tar.gz binaries.
