minerd based cpu miner

[reorder]

to compile miner you need ssl library
in makefile.am change

Code: [Select]

minerd_LDADD        = @LIBCURL@ @JANSSON_LIBS@ @PTHREAD_LIBS@to

Code: [Select]

minerd_LDADD        = @LIBCURL@ @JANSSON_LIBS@ @PTHREAD_LIBS@ -lssl -lcrypto

hey, i wonder, does it help anything to increase memory usage?

If you mean - adding RAM to the system or closing other applications, then yes, it will decrease paging out of data miner needs to access. Turning off swap in Linux or setting a very low swappiness would help achieve that too.

How to use it for solo mining?

This is a really good question ! Does anybody knows how to do it ?

[Grekk]

I can`t compile from source.

Code: [Select]

mv -f .deps/minerd-momentum.Tpo .deps/minerd-momentum.Po
g++  -g -O2 -pthread  -o minerd minerd-cpu-miner.o minerd-util.o minerd-momentum.o -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -lcurl -ljansson -lpthread

How to use it for solo mining?

[FreeTrade]

Hi all!

I'm releasing sources for minerd based cpuminer. Its not fully optimized but it at least suitable for solo mine. Also it will work with any getwork based pools.

Sources available cpuminer
64bit linux here

Thanks for this. Will try a windows compile later.

Nice one, but doing one hash per thread instead of splitting the job between threads is asking for orphans..

I think there is probably a happy medium between all the threads working on one hash (stock) and one thread per hash.

Working two hashes at a time, with half the threads in each would probably maximise the hash rate with a low orphan rate. Maybe 4 hashes for very powerful comps.

Sorry, I have a missing dependency.. ?

Running Debian

Code: [Select]

uname -r
3.2.0-4-amd64
./minerd: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by ./minerd)

If you're on linux then its better to build it from source. I have more recent glibc on my laptop

It will increase probability to find block btw.

I've work with Minerd too for my Pool.

Congratulations for your code

I can upload binary for 64bit linux only
