M7j version of yam miner available. It supports fast CPU mining for PTS, MMC, more mining pools and protocols.

To mine MemoryCoin with yam M7j use provided miner config template named yam-mmc.cfg as a base, check readme.txt for more details.
yam M7j optimised for mining MMC on CPUs with AES-NI support and has 5 different algo variations for HT, non-HT and GPU friendly setups.

yam M7j miner now supports PTS mining at beeeeer and includes fix for Win2003 and other older 64bit systems. Check readme.txt for details.

It seems that they are compile at linux-core 2.6.24. But almost all my servers are runing at lower kernel such as 2.6.18. Could you please just recompile with older kernel or can you share source code to me? I can compile in my environment. Thank you so much...

If 2.6.18 means CenOS 5, then AES-NI is not available there. You have to write (or find) a driver that would enable it.

With the new coin miner fully justifies its name. 

Yes! Thanks for bringing mining home to CPUs and Memory. 5000 MMC tip on its way to yvg1900 from MCF.

yvg1900 should be the CTO i think

Only if he open-sources his code!  As CTO he would be getting paid anyway.

agreed, he needs to open it if wanna get the position.

I'm mining with a couple of CPU's and I've gone from about 30 coins/day to 4 coins/day in a few days. A big rise in difficulty or is it the new GPU miners that's taking over?

[frostybutdelicious]

I'm on windows, and when I enter this command downloads\yam....\yam....\yam.exe --config yam-mmc.cfg it tells me I need to specify at least one --mine parameter. But those are specified in the config file, so I'm not sure how to proceed. Any ideas?

Error: boost::bad_any_cast: failed conversion using boost::any_cast

Any idea what can be wrong?

[sandor111]

Yeah I'm pretty bummed out, but 3 extra hpm is compared to previous miners is cool.

[badbonez]

With a dual L5639 I get 13 hpm on 24 threads, not a huge improvement over the previous miners, definitely not 300% (btw I'm using Nehalem binary)

I'm just trying to get the miner to run on all 24 threads.  When I try just 12 threads, I get about 11HPM, I was hoping (maybe too optimistic) that 24 threads = ~22HPM.  But I'm paying for the 24 threads on the cloud server, I want to use them all.

[badbonez]

I appreciate the help!  I am using a 6-core (L5639), 24 thread Unbutu 13.04 server.  When I run ./yam -c yam-mmc.cfg it runs for about 20-30 seconds and then dies.  If I run yam with say 12 threads, it works fine.  But I'd rather not run multiple instances. (NOTE:  It will not work if I run 2x 12 thread instances. If I run a 12 th and a 8 th instance I get a combined HPM of ~12.  About the same if I just ran a single 12 thread instance.)

Thank you!

Unfortunately, here we have nearly the same situation as we had with cloud servers running first versions of PTS mining (before yam, it was jhProtominer M7c-M7h, probably you followed a bit).

I recommend you the following:

1. Post here output of the miner that comes right after banner message - there is info on algo in use, number of threads selected and optimization compatibility checks - there we will see if AES-NI is really working
2. Try running it with ONE thread. You shall get ART value within reasonable time and factor out many potential issues.
3. Post here output of numactl --hardware (this is TYPICAL that cloud services DO NOT properly support NUMA, to be honest I am NOT aware of any that does that right, as well as memory management is completely unacceptable for high performance computing).

From what I see, you have multi-socket system (some Dual Xeon E5-26XX), so proper NUMA support is critical. Default memory allocation policy for such systems is typical to be Interleaved, causing huge underperformance under heavy memory load due to QPI bandwidth limitation, which is exactly our case.

Note that miner updates statistics in between rounds, so not showing statistics means that round takes way too long - compare this with physical machine - some SB, IB or Haswell i7.

As of crash, which EXACTLY CPU is there and which build do you use?

yvg1900

P.S. In other case I would not support cloud services and low end configs because of they simply using outdated and improperly configured software. But let us try to figure out what we can do.

[Armchair Miner]

Great job    yvg1900!! Trippling the performance both on i7 3770k with the ivy bridge build and on AMD FX 8350 with the generic build.

Being that the CPUs are about $200 and GPUs about $400, CPU's are now operating at parity with the GPUs in  $/Hash !

Frostybutdelicious, the "generic" build works well for the AMD FX. Using 6 threads the performance is almost at parity with the i7 3770k.

Wearing some bling \    /  and -($)-($)- today.

I've got 2 computers running windows 7. One is an 8 core AMD FX cpu and the other is a 4 core AMD FX cpu. Which version of the miner am I supposed to used? Also, is it possible to solo mine protoshares or memorycoin using this miner, or is it only possible to use a pool?

EDIT: my i7 3770k works with ivy bridge not sandy bridge.

nooo

I've just updated the miner. It now tries to allocate 1GB buffer regardless of what the driver reports. You could try if it works on your card. Anyway the 610's performance will be disappointing. You'll get much more with any modern CPU and yam miner.
