creepMiner - C++ Burst Miner (based on Uray's Miner)



  • @Creepsky Hey I really like creepMiner so far. I'm wondering what "intensity" and "maxBufferSizeMB" should be set to? Should this be directly related to CPU cores and total RAM? I would like to tweak these values to whatever will give me the best performance. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!


  • admin

    @Creepsky thanks for providing binaries for linux, too!



  • This post is deleted!


  • @Beddhist I tried to compile it for XP, but unfortunately there were a lot of compiler errors. After some research it turned out, that I can't use all of the C++11 features for XP, which I used a lot.

    @groupthug please have a look at this wiki page. It describes the things you asked, hope it helps.

    @daWallet never mind :)



  • @Creepsky45 Outstanding documentation, thank you!



  • This is really a nice miner. Very fast and minimal output.
    I want to know that if "miningInfo" : "http://xxx:8124", and "submission" : "xxx", same?
    Should I use port 8124 on submission?



  • and what is this error?

    current config:

        "submissionMaxRetry" : 3,
        "targetDeadline" : "0y 0m 20d 15:00:00",
        "timeout" : 45,
        "urls" : {
            "miningInfo" : "http://burstpool.ddns.net:8124",
            "submission" : "http://burstpool.ddns.net",
            "wallet" : "https://wallet1.burstnation.com:8125"
        }
    

    also, should i decrease deadline?


  • Mod

    @sayem314 change

    "wallet" : "https://wallet1.burstnation.com:8125"
    

    to

    "wallet" : "http://burstpool.ddns.net:8124"
    


  • @Blago Thanks! other settings OK? submission url need port 8124?


  • Mod

    @sayem314 yes, better set :8124

    also "targetDeadline" : "0y 0m 50d 00:00:00",

    and do you know what recommended size for this pool = 1Tb?
    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yUDT-BW23alJdkkIXmYG0fvSjw2JXhgR7E_2W3W96wQ



  • @Blago no I don't know this pool recommended size. Can you recommend me a pool? I will add another 400GB plot tomorrow!


  • Mod

    @sayem314 In summary you will have 1.2Tb, so burstpool.ddns.net or pool.burstcoin.party or burstneon.ddns.net (w/o limits)



  • Hi guys, I wanted for the first time to give a try to this miner. But as soon it opens it closes down.
    The log file gives me this:

    Any thoguths? Thanks :)



  • @vExact you have an extra | " | before E:\

    "plots" : [

    (here)> ""E:\\",



  • @sayem314 oh didn't see that. I removed it but keep having the same problem :/



  • I got same errors. This helped.
    "D:\Burst/plots",
    before I had "D:\Burst\plots",

  • Mod

    @vuli or

     "D:\\Burst\\plots"
    

    also you may check your config for errors here https://jsonlint.com



  • I'm seeing the following percentage in the miner:
    19:48:34: [++++++------------------------------------------] 12%
    Does that mean that only 12% of the plots were read for the current block? I'm never seeing it go beyond 16%, is this normal?



  • @crk said in creepMiner - C++ Burst Miner (based on Uray's Miner):

    I'm seeing the following percentage in the miner:
    19:48:34: [++++++------------------------------------------] 12%
    Does that mean that only 12% of the plots were read for the current block? I'm never seeing it go beyond 16%, is this normal?

    Or is this percentage of block forging? Is there any way to know if my plots are read fast enough?



  • Hi Creepsky45,

    I've just started using your miner (on Linux Mint 64bit), first I want to thank you for developing this software! Thank you!

    Secondly, I'm seeing some errors now and then and I'd like to know if my config is optimal.

    I have 12 plot files spread over 3 drives (total of 2.6 TB)

    Here is my log file showing the errors.
