BitShares PTS / Re: fast AMD OpenCL PTS miner released
« on: March 06, 2014, 01:27:24 am »So I'm running the miner on Win7 either the beer or ypool the latest 1.4+ 2.2+ using 13.12 and 3x R9 290X. After 3-5 hours the CPM will just start to slow down and drop till it reaches nothing. If I restart the miner it will go back to normal and the same thing will happen. Any idea's on how to fix this issue? It's annoying me to hell.
The output of the program will also just list the CPM and the falling numbers right after another.
Are you getting any accepted shares? Do they decline over time too?
I get a bunch of Share found!! Share found!! works as normal then all of a sudden it will just list the cpm and no more shares found etc just will count down till it reaches zero.
Post some more details.. for me it looks fine.
Is it something related to your ISP/router/scheduler? Can you try it from a different ISP? Place?
It's quite strange the 5/6 hours time frame... try to check what could be happening by that window of time. Are you mining both pools same time and having the same exact issue at the exact same time?
Also investigate since when you are having this issue..
Basic skills of troubleshooting does not involve any technical skills.. only.. parts exclusions...
To be able to reject possible situations is the most important part.
It's not always 5-6 hours sometimes it's shorter sometimes it's longer sometimes within a few min. I Just used that as an example. It seems like it's totally random when it happens. I had the output for the monitor on a display port cable then I thought perhaps there's an issue with recognizing a monitor after it turns itself off then I swapped to a dvi and it seemed to work fine for a while then the issue came back.
I'm really puzzled by this as it doesn't make any sense as to why it will just mess up like this.
Just keep a third window.. pinging the mining host you are miming to.. and you will see if it is something because of you.. or not.
NOTE: LOG it, with timestamps.. cause it's going to be a big output! And use different workers for different GPUs performances..
So how do I go about logging it? And any specific command just to chain ping the host?
