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.

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

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.
