KNOWN ISSUES:
1) on some machines the windows binary crashs right after the first share submission (see next posts), looking into that issue

I am having the same issue across most of my hardware, I know it's already known, but if you need any assistance with testing, drop me a line and I will be happy to help.  I can test on workstations with i7's, i5's, C2Qs, and Xeon servers with dual 51xx, E54xx, X53xx, X55xx, and X56xx series procs. (most running windows 64bit OS's) Just shy of 200 cores total.

Figure it's the least i can contribute.  :)

Keep up the great work!

I'm also experiencing the crashing problem on my i7 920. I'm wondering if it's cause it doesn't have AVX, but does have SSE4 and it's trying to default to AVX?

Same problem on my Q9550 (and my E6700, but it doesn't even support SSE4).

I'm noticing an increase from ~80 c/m to ~100 c/m on my 4 core Xeon E31220. I'm also experiencing the crashing problem on my i7 920. I'm wondering if it's cause it doesn't have AVX, but does have SSE4 and it's trying to default to AVX?

0.7 is working perfect on my Windows 8.1 machine, using AVX c/m has gone from ~120c/m to ~140c/m

and on my Azure Ubuntu 13.10, using sphlib c/m has gone from ~90c/m to ~100c/m

Thanks xolo !!

output of
Code: [Select]
cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep flags?

looks like avx/sse is disabled

/edit:
yep, it's disabled! see post below, no avx, no sse4

Thanks for the quick AMD fix, runs fine, but no improvement in speed over the 0.6 version - getting 140.4 c/m | 2.4 sh/m on AMD FX8350 @ 4.2Ghz.

can you try the sphlib version of the miner for your AMD CPU?
(see (new) mediafire link in announcement post)

- xolokram

ps. yes, maybe ec2 instances are permitted to use them, haven't checked it yet, will do

Problems with 0.7 miner (github version 38047d66731), on Windows 7 64bit, AMD FX8350 CPU, CPM is about 30% lower than version 0.6.

Amazon EC2 compiles source okay (32 core instance), but crashes with illegal instruction + core dumps - probably due to new instructions being used?

v0.7 crashes on share submit for me, win7 64, default memory settings (no number)

Same here, win7 64, 4 threads default 512

Edit: After using the AVX/SSE version it still crashes after a couple of submits

share submission's working fine on all my test systems
which is the last line you see in the output?

(please, PM me or even better use IRC --> freenode #beeeeer.org, so this thread and especially the last post will not polute everything with tech support stuff)

ps. rejections are not 100% gone due to the client<->server communication delay still causing a few rejects, but it should be better now
