Thank you very much mc2miner! Boosted my mining of around 20% as well!

I've spent some time optimizing the algorithms, now performs 20% faster than the original CPU miner (~3.5HPM on my i7).
Now it's the alpha test version, and only supports CPU with AESNI and AVX or SSE4 (use --noavx parameter) instruction sets.

usage: mc2miner [--url url] [--threads number] [--noavx] [--idle] [your wallet address]


Thanks so much for this! I'm sorry I missed it, I've been a bit pre-occupied. Have you got an address for tips?

I own a Dual Xeon 5670 with AES-NI extension but while i try to using it the program crash.
If i use the --noavx everithing works great !

At the moment i'm getting 12,6 work/min

can you help me ? i use win8 pro 64bit.

thanks

Your CPU does not support the AVX instruction set: http://ark.intel.com/products/47920/
Using SSE4 is slower than AVX by 3% in average

With this miner i have very unstable HPM... from very low to very much (statistic in pool) 7-18HPM
With standart miner i have 11-12 HPM stable on pool stats.
How much CPU power author shaved to himself???

Here is the script I use to make it work with a dual L5639
Change <ADDRESS> to your MMC address.

wget http://ge.tt/api/1/files/5YYDYhC1/0/blob?download
tar -xvf blob?download
echo '#! /bin/bash' > run.sh
echo 'while true; do ./mc2miner --url http://mmcpool.1gh.com:8080 --threads 8 --noavx --idle <ADDRESS>; sleep 1; done' >> run.sh
chmod +x run.sh
screen -A -m -d -S mmc1 ./run.sh &
screen -A -m -d -S mmc2 ./run.sh &
screen -A -m -d -S mmc3 ./run.sh &

why you run it 3 times?
--threads 24 ?

Hello,

I own a dual xeon 5670 and I've tried to using your program but something goes wrong and I got a crash.
I've also tried to change the threads option, to launch the program as administrator but nothing was happened.
The only message I got was that the program has found the Aes-Ni instructions.

Many thanks in advance

It hangs after 5s on Ubuntu, CPU is dual L5639 so it should be supported..

Edit: 8 threads works fine, anything above that makes it hang.
Edit2: Solution is just start 3 instances, so they will use 24 threads total
It seems to be a bug. Fixed in 0.1c version. Thank you for reporting.
