Use a comma separated list of values if you want to assign different values for each GPU. Significantly reduced Ethash power draw on Navi GPUs, Slightly improved performance of 6800 (XT) / 6900, Added Cuckoo-29, Cuckaroo-30 CTX, Cuckatoo-31 (MWC) and Cuckatoo-32 (Grin) for RX 6800 family of GPUs. Still on Linux we recommend 470.74 and on Windows 472.12 for LHR v2 cards. icemining.ca Ton stratum now can use the --pass or --dualpass parameter to apply pool settings. This should fix issues with mining rig rentals and ezil pool. This caused problems, especially on ETC+ZIL. Cards are separated with a comma. Keep away other work load from your GPU as e.g. Added --zombie-tune parameter for Polaris GPUs. Improves poolside hash rate by approx 0.2 to 0.3% - displayed hashrate and power consume kept equal. She . fixed a bug causing Vega GPUs not starting to mine Nexa on systems with xnack feature enabled. For terminals that do not have rgb colors (e.g. Windows: Adjusted LHR parameters a bit for more stable operation. Added experimental Eth+Alephium dual mining kernels for Pascal GPUs. Beam Hash III not starting up in Linux on RX 5000 & RX 6000 series card on amdgpu-pro 20.45 driver. Topic: lolMiner 1.64: Fastest Kaspa miner in market (Read 152650 times) Akyboy. Added experimental Ethash + Ton dual mining kernels for Nvidia Pascal generation GPUs. The world is full of difficult personalities, but it's nearly impossible to avoid narcissists. In case the miner detects no action of a GPU for at least a minute it will call the included scripts "reboot.sh" (Linux) or "reboot.bat" (Windows) and display a warning message in red. https://github.com/Lolliedieb/lolMiner-preview/releases/tag/0.9.1hotfix. Added 16 GByte solver for Cuckatoo-31 (GRIN). In case you find it unstable the pre-building can be deactivated by using parameter --ergo-prebuild -1 / 0 / 1. Extended crc table for Ethash up until epoch 550. Miner fees will be evenly shared regardless of which of these two flavors of the code you prefer. Improved Kaspa only mining performance. Comma separated values for configuring multiple cards differently. Note that at the moment the miner has no fan control module and also no throttling to keep a target temperature. Offset to most important LHR parameters. Nvidia cards on Ethash now pause when the stratum reports no current work (e.g. Use --mode s to force it. This will do nothing except for printing a message. Edit: support for Fiji was broken, A fix can be found here: Significantly improved the Ton performance in Eth+Ton dual mining for all supported GPUs. Temporarily disabled the ZIL cache function on AMD GPUs, because it sometimes did not swap clearly. Therefore the yesterday released version 1.21 will remain the recent release for Windows. Improved performance of Kaspa on Nvidia Turing and newer by 0.2-1% depending on model, Improved efficiency of Kaspa mining on Nvidia Turing and newer by 2-3% depending on model, Halved number of stale shares on Kaspa on Nvidia Turing and newer, Fixed a bug causing --tstart and --tstop not working in Nexa solvers, Fixed a bug causing the miner not to pause on a connection loss in Nexa solvers. (See note on release page). Reactivated support for Beam Hash I including support for personalization strings. (3) Needs admin / sudo privileges. A git repository for lolMiner release versions, To see some basic configuration examples, see here: https://github.com/Lolliedieb/lolMiner-releases/wiki/lolMiner-Basic-usage-(English), Improved performance of Nexa on Nvidia Turing and newer by 2-5% depending on model, Improved performance of Nexa on AMD cards by 0.5 - 1.5% depending on model, All GPUs on Nexa and Nvidia GPUs on Kaspa now do a clean shutdown once hitting ctrl+c - that should prevent issues and crashing when exiting / resetting oc, Enabling reading of GPU junction temperature ( and memory temperature on Nvidia GDDR6x GPUs) on Nvidia 530 drivers or newer, Windows: updated the oc gui with added AMD overclock functionality. This is default on, so just run the miner with --4g-alloc-size set only to run the zombie mode automatic tuning. Unlock working on all supported algorithms including Ethash and dual Mining. (1). Fixed a bug causing stale shares being counted as defect shares in API - and not correctly exposed in miner UI as well. Note that with --maxdualimpact you still can just define the max % of Eth hashrate to give away. Improved Nexa performance on Nvidia Turing based gpus by approximately 35%+. LHR calibration on startup now taking approx 2 minutes instead of 4. Fee is 0.75%. Toggle TLS ("on" / "off") for the 2nd connection. This version uses the pool protocol extension of. Use --benchmark ETCHASH --benchepoch 390 to benchmark performance post fork. GPU sorting changed. (1) Primary focus in optimization were the low to medium range Nvidia Ampere GPUs. By default, this value is set to 56MB in Windows and 5MB in Linux, which should work fine. Added support for extra nonce subscription on Ergo stratum - this will cause less reconnects on Nicehash, Fixed an issue causing "invalid" shares on Ethash when the pool makes intensive use of variable difficulty (e.g. Therefore the yesterday released version 1.21 will remain the recent release for Windows. If a GPU does not have the required sensors the chip temperature will be used as a back up - if no sensors are available at all the parameters will be ignored. Minimal temperature for a GPU to start in degree C. If set to 0 disables restart below a fixed temperature. Pitcairn GPUs (HD 7850, R9 270, R9 270) still need a new kernel for Ergo. Note: some pool might not like appending your user name with a dot. Fixed a bug that can cause random invalid shared when mining Kaspa on AMD GPUs. faulty DNS entries Added parameters --dualtls and --dualworker to toggle TLS and the worker name for the dual connection. Ethereum stratum code will now print the pool difficulty in better human readable number The miner will now print the ip of the connected pool - to be able to detect e.g. The scripts can be used to trigger a reboot of the rig or to call any other watchdog actions. Applied potential fix for "address or port already in use" bug. Example for --dualdevices and --maxdualimpact This means that by default one minute after the DAG was created the cards now get "protected" from further detection. This is repeated if necessary until a pool remains below the latency limit. There are two new splitting modes. 137pool.org. Fixed "Address already in use" API bug in Linux (that incidentally got introduced in 1.19), Miner did not start up when "DEVICES" was configured in as a vector in json file, e.g. Updated WebUI for Nexa mining and more pools to support. Significantly improved Nexa mining performance on supported GPUs (e.g. _Basic temperature management / overheating protection. Note that dual mode codes remain unchanged. Fixed a bug with Ethash Nicehash protocol reporting "conversion of data to type 'b' failed" on new jobs. Note: this is a Linux only release and also of rather temporary character. Ethash mining frequently trying to start up a card if there was an error during mining. (1), Fixed bug: Hashrate reporting not working on some pools (e.g. Kernel mode to mine on. The added epochs will minimum last until the 1.35 release. Otherwise, the miner cannot choose the parameters for it and constantly . We hope to get this fixed in one of the upcoming versions. Added Nvidia memory junction temperature readings on cards that support this, e.g. Select stats to be drawn in a vertical manner for each GPU (default). That said the Navi cards somehow to not like to zombie tuning at all, that is why they only feature the standard zombie mode. "*" can be used to skip a card. If the static diff is too low the miners will submit massive amount of shares which puts very high load on the pool servers/internet connection. Specify which script to be executed when a hung GPU is detected. Fixed a bug "Received a defect stratum message: conversion of data to type "b" failed" on new Kaspa pools and the solo mining adapters. NiceHash Rig Manager shows the detailed reason for rejected shares. Tested Intel OpenCL driver versions are 22.24.23453 and 22.32.23937. 10G and higher gpus got an additional 5% performance increase. 6G cards or when mining e.g. Consider a 6 card rig with --dualdevices 4,5 --maxdualimpact 0,0,*,*,*,* Added Ethash Zombie mode for 4G Nvidia GPUs. To continue mining Ergo, please update to this version. GPU 6: Found a share of difficulty 2.98G GPU 6: Share accepted (137 ms) New job received: 00000000fd45973c Epoch: 449 GPU 6: Found a share of difficulty 0.59G GPU 6: Share accepted (19 ms) Average speed (10s): 52.69mh/s | 64.88mh/s Total: 117.57 mh/s GPU 5: detected mining lock. How to Set Up the Software for 4GB GPU Mining. Anyways: Once a card is crashed some cards - mostly AMD cards - need a system reboot to get the faults card working again. See a detailed description here: Added new dualmode zilEx. Because the difficulty is higher, the miner will find valid shares less frequently, resulting in less data transmitted from the miner to the pool. Removed 14 cycle fidelity from overview - new C29M solver does not output it properly. Fixed a bug that may cause TLS connections not cleanly reconnecting after a connection loss, Implementing the new LHR scheme in Windows. If any of the above requirements are not met, the miner will load the old 79% unlock function and print a fitting warning method with the statistics. "CL_OUT_OF_RESOURCES" will now also trigger the watchdog with the configured effect. In mixed system select 'a' for skipping over the AMD cards. Slight rework of Beam Hash III back end. HD 7970, R9 280, R7 370). AMD Navi does now work on all supported algorithms, Removed Grin Auto-Switcher (C31 is obsolete now and the switcher would not work on next Grin fork), Removed support for MNX (Minex Coin project is dead / abandoned by developers), Added temperature, consumption and fan speed readings in API and long statistics, Improved GRIN-C29M solver, Better performance (+7-12% depending on card) and smaller memory use (fits 6G now), Added support for Radeon 5500 (XT) and 5600 (XT) on all Grin algorithms, Added BEAM support for Radeon 5500, 5600 and 5700 series (Needing 19.30 and newer driver), Fixed driver incompatibilities with some newer driver versions (e.g. This will be a bit slower, but improve compatibility, especially for 5G GPUs. Fixed a bug with 3060 semi-unlocker not unlocking after DAG rebuild. The miner itself will take no further action and continue operation on the remaining cards. Ethash stratum connection will now reconnect after three pool rejected shares in a row that did pass own CPU verify before. Two reasons: first, in order for their shares to be valid they have to have the pool set as the recipient, so the mined block already gives the reward to the pool no matter who broadcasts it, and second (as indicated by zanzu) the pool doesn't actually bother giving the whole block out to miners, just a template for the header that contains the When one Nvidia GPU stops because of a recoverable error (e.g. Select stats to be drawn in a horizontal manner for each GPU. Use --algo NEXA to mine it. Added support of RTX A6000 / RTX A5000 / RTX A4000 (and future RTX A2000) Nvidia workstation GPUs, Reduced RAM usage of Nvidia Ethash solver (some 10+ card rigs got issues with 1.33 when they only had 4G of memory). Speed increase is about 8-8.5% on Nvidia Pascal GPUs, 4.5-5% on Nvidia Turing and Ampere GPUs and 3-4% on AMD Navi and Big Navi GPUs, Beta feature: added options to set core clock offset (. ezil pool), Added support for Ironfish mining (use -a IRONFISH for putting out your rod) for Nvidia Pascal and newer and AMD Vega and newer GPUs. Especially: Set clocks that your GPUs can keep without running into thermal throttling. Significantly improved Kaspa performance and efficiency on Nvidia Turing and Ampere GPUs. Pooled mining works by people in the pool trying to find the ultimate hash that is less than the number proscribed by the difficulty. Added 2 more epochs on Ergo for 3G AMD GPUs. lolMiner.exe Windows executable is now digitally signed. Better performance and less energy use for Radeon VII, Radeon Pro Duo Polaris, Vega Frontier and RX 570 16GByte, Added support for ZelHash (EquihashR 125/4/0) for the hard fork (July 2nd), Fixed a bug with some pool software (e.g. Note that existing dual mining configurations will automatically launch Eth / Etc / Ubiq only mode, so existing configurations will not be broken. Cards are separated with a comma. Added DAG check and repair function for Ethereum Classic mining up to epoch 300. Navigate to, Added experimental (at the moment a bit slow) Ethash kernels for new AMD BC-250 APUs, In dual mining the algorithm that mined a share will now be shown in command line output, --ton-mode 6 stratum mode will now obey the prefix send to it on the first bytes of the nonce (request from other pools that want to use this scheme), Startup time of dual mining on non-LHR cards is now reduced to 30 seconds after DAG build. The parameter is "--coin GRIN-AT31", Grin cycle finding is completely done on GPU, the miner has almost 0 CPU load (on AMD, Nvidia has some due to OpenCL back end), Stratum bug fixes (NiceHash) for 144/5, 192/7 and 96/5, Added a distinct 1G / 3&4G / 6&8G kernel for mining MNX (Windows, Linux had this in 0.7.1), Added support for Beam (BEAM, modified Equihash 150/5), only tuned for AMD cards, Added TLS support for stratum. To prove that you are working on the problem, you submit what are called shares. Supported algorithms: Et(c)hash, kHeavyHash and the corresponding dual mining. Also the tool can apply the chosen settings directly. Fixed benchmark mode for ETCHash. JPMorgan Chase Takes Over First Republic After FDIC Seizes Bank - WSJ (1) Thanks to my Spanish mining community for letting me know and the help to track down this issue. Significantly improved performance on R9 390. On some Linux kernels there is a memory leak in the GPU driver component that effects lolMiner quite hard when mining with Navi cards. Zombie mode GPUs no longer crash during DAG verify. Note that the auto-switcher is only working with at least 4G, for the 3G cards please use --coin BEAM-II manually on fork height. Fixed a bug with invalid shares in Pitcairn Ergo Zombie mode. Fixed a bug that caused the miner to enter re-connect routine when one endpoint of a Ton - pool did not work, although other endpoints did connect well (That in combination with the previous one was root cause for most Ton errors in Windows we recently had). The mining phase of Autolykos V2 instead is not very power hungry. The actual improvement depends on the concretely selected dual factor. Moved more fee pools to use TLS connection. If there is only one miner on the pool, then you can set share difficulty equal to network difficulty. The DAG epoch the denchmark mode will use. To be used as with the parameters for the standard connection. (2) Feel free to discuss good tuning values in the discussion section of this release page. . -1 refers to the card default. Please allow more core clock and accordingly voltage! Decreased rate of stales on Nvidia Turing & Ampere GPUs. Re-tuning your setup is highly recommended. Improved stability of Ethash stratum and statistics module - fixed minor issues that might rarely cause a miner crash in them. This commit does not belong to any branch on this repository, and may belong to a fork outside of the repository. 0MH/S After some hours of running! This is at a cost of slightly slower mining directly after a height change, but generally improves poolside performance. Even at high OC now the DAG should be created successfully withing a short time. Cheaper locks: when unlocking the miner will continue mining at low speed to make the unlock procedure more cheap. Fixing a bug with ETHV1 (nicehash) stratum mode that may cause the worker name to be appended twice when it was given by --user . The new zombie-tune parameter has only been tested with amdgpu-pro 20.30 and 20.40. Needs super user or administrator privileges to work. Fixed a bug causing lolMiner not to start Kaspa mining on Nvidia GPUs when the Nvidia OpenCL installation on the system is broken. Required when using --algo for Equihash algorithms. After that an update should be made. See notes below for usage. Miners that do not have a card using the zombie mode can safely ignore this update - it will behave identical to 1.21. What does "difficulty" mean on a stratum mining pool? Extended working range of 100% LHR unlocker to 470 and 472 drivers. The coin to mine - this is an alternative to --algo that sets both, the algorithm and the personalization string for Equihash coins. Many Git commands accept both tag and branch names, so creating this branch may cause unexpected behavior. With this option the miner will call an external script (default path is current working directory and there emergency.sh / .bat), which can be configured with --watchdogscript. [2Miners] Best Ethereum Mining Software for Nvidia and AMD - AZCoin News Each timeout event contributes to the counter that will trigger switching to fail-over pools. Significantly improved Ergo performance on GCN Gen 1 GPUs (e.g. Added a new parameter --no-oc-reset to turn off the reset of overclock settings when ending the miner. All supported algorithms now show the share difficulty and have best share statistics. Changed default behavior for "." Tuning advice: On Nvidia Turing and Ampere GPUs this algorithm works best when locking the core clock to desired value (higher gives more performance, lower reduces power draw). Fees are equal to Nvidia and AMD GPUs on the corresponding algorithms. Added reading of junction temperature and memory temperature for Nvidia GPUs for drivers 515 or newer. lolMiner-releases/README.md at master - Github up to +25% on 8G Ampere GPUs), Fixed a bug that can make the miner crash with error message "Authorization problem on all configured pools 1" during Nexa mining. The parameter --4g-alloc-size can now also be set for each card individually. Fixed a bug in web ui to sometimes not refreshing. Also the new codes are now working much better when GPUs are power limited. On Turing based GPUs the performance matches common codes, but is more energy efficient. Stratum connections will now have an increasing timeout (steps of 5 seconds) when reconnecting plus a small random time of 1 second in order to not overload the target pool in case of recovering from a network outtake. Added Ethash + Alephium dual mining mode analogous to existing Ethash + Ton mode. This will close the miner with a exit code of 42. We will bring this back as soon as possible. This will reduce the switching time for Nicehash & ZIL dual mining significantly. Lost connection to stratum server us1.ethermine.org:4444 or server not reachable. Fixed a bug with json style configuration not working with dual mining in 1.43 release version. Fixed a bug causing --dualworker not to work right with Kaspa dual mining. If your mining os had build in functions to set these settings we recommend using them instead of the miner settings. 4G) and 15-20% on epoch 400. GDDR6X customer GPUs, most professional and server GPUs and so on. You can also exclude cards from tuning or set their value manually, e.g. Added reading of junction temperature on AMD GPUs. Member Offline Activity: 90 Merit: 1. Range is +/-40. Significantly improved Flux mining performance on AMD RX 5000 (+10% on 5700) and AMD RX 6000 based GPUs (+15-22%). The needed format will be automatically detected when connecting to a pool using it. Fixed a bug causing a segmentation fault when trying to mine EXCC. Note 1: Every code update - in particular when so massive as here - may require re-tuning your oc & uv settings for ideal results and stability. Fixed benchmark mode not starting up when called from json type configuration. The archives for ZIL example files now contain examples how to bypass the ZIL pools. Most of them will only work for small epoch Eth forks. Disable (0) or Enable (1) the function of pre-building the dataset for Ergo. This results in a Share Target of ( 1 / 1,000,000) = 0.0000010000 The miner. Nvidia LHR cards will no longer run the LHR unlock when not mining Et(c)hash or Ergo - this will prevent them from crashing on some other algorithms. In fact. Pool configuration for extra connection, Format : Username or wallet address for the extra connection, Password for the extra connection (Optional). What is share difficulty? : r/EtherMining - Reddit Therefore the yesterday released version 1.21 will remain the recent release for Windows. Its now sorted by PCIE bus address. See 4G_Windows_Readme.txt for configuring it. Re-tuning your setup is highly recommended. The parameter --disable-dag-verify was not working for OpenCL fired cards. This adds a new parameter --tls to control TLS on / off (see manual on usage), Some bugfixes and reworks in the stratum code. Other cards - mostly Nvidia - just need a closing of the miner program - a few seconds wait time - and then are fine to get going again. Solver will be dualfactor * Eth/Etc hash rate. Minor LHR unlocker stability improvements. Use a comma separated list of indexes or "4G" (default). Fixed a bug that RTX 3070Ti only triggered the lock detector on rather low memory clock. A growing share of Americans say affordable housing is a major problem Mining Flux, Beam, Equihash 144/5 and Equihash 192/7 will now display the iteration/s (it / s) for easier OC tuning and the pool sol/s calculated from submitted and accepted shares. The number overwrites the terminal width detection. Improved Nexa mining performance by 4% on AMD Vega, Navi and Big Navi gpus and by 2-3% on Nvidia Turing and Ampere gpus. The script needs to take care about rebooting the rig or informing the OS what to do. Removed: Support for mining Ton in single and dual mining modes. Fixed bug: (Linux:) Watchdog not called when a GPU is stuck & extremely high CPU load on crashed GPU. It is more stable now. lolMiner Windos and Linux. Default --shortstats interval lowered to 15 seconds, default --longstats interval lowered to 60 seconds, More stable displayed hashrate on Nvidia cards when mining Eth, Changes in Api: On supported algorithms the miner now exposes the number of stale shares in API (stales and defect shares are no longer collapsed into one value), Fixed a bug with processing old style --dualmode etc dualmine settings, Fixed a bug causing a non-realistic high hash rate to be displayed on LHR cards when overclocked after start. Significantly improved / speed up DAG repair function. --watchdog exit When running multiple Intel Arc GPUs on Beam or Equihash 144/5 the cards will slow down. Improved Nexa mining performance on AMD Vega based gpuss by 45% (Vega 56 & Vega 64) and up to 60% on Radeon VII, Note: needs still drivers that are HSA based as very new amdgpu-pro versions or rocm drivers. Added Nexa support for AMD Vega / VII (1) and RDNA 1-3 GPUs (2). Other Linux kernel versions and other GPUs are unchanged. Use, Added performance improved (+ >10%) GRIN-C29M solver for 8G GPUs, Added Cuckaroo-30 solver to mine Cortex Ai (, Added support for non-integer difficulty on Grin. Dual mining with Aleph & Ton is supported as well as doing ZIL dual mining. Personal release notes Mode for temperature management. Slightly improved performance of Flux mining on Nvidia Ampere and Turing cards (by approx 1.5-2.5% compared to 1.60). Maxing out will give more epochs of mining & better Zombie mode performance, lower values may improve compatibility. If the pool connection gets lost on the dual mining algorithm, the miner will now stop the dual mining to save the energy and continues in Ethash only mode until the connection is re-established.
