Oh, I wasn't expecting solomining at all ^^
I saw that in the parameters of ptsminer 0.7, and wondering if greater memory usages was increasing revenues or not

You can hardly get any share by solo mining included with wallet client, by the time with the network hashrates so large.

Go get a miner program and join a pool.

If you still want to do solo mining, I suggest you the number of threads equal to the core numbers, which is to say, 4 * 512 MB as you example.

Protoshares memory usage
« Reply #1 on: December 23, 2013, 11:25:43 pm »
Hello,
What is the relation between protoshares mining and memory/thread?
More memory/thread the better?
What is it supposed to improve? c/m ? sh/m ?
In what proportions?

Suppose I've a 2 cores / 4 threads CPU with only 4GB RAM, should I prefer 3 threads*1GB per thread or 4 threads*512MB?

Thanks.
