Mjminer plotter fork for Optimized Plots on macOS (CPU, AVX2, SSE4)
-
Recently optimised mjminer plotter to produce fully optimised plots directly. Use same arguments as usual but prepend with
sudo, it just produces fully optimised plot files:
https://github.com/k06a/mjminerIt requires root access because of fast file allocation without zeroing its content – which is potentially not safe, because app will be able to access data of deleted files. But in case of plotter it is not a problem – files gets allocated, then is fully rewritten. You can read all changes in this pull request:
https://github.com/r-majere/mjminer/pull/4I wanna this PR to be merged into original repository. Do anyone have contact of @r-majere?

Hi @k06a ,
damn you are good.
If @r-majere is out of town for longer we can replace the links in the tutorials in favor of your fork.
What I don't get from the beginning of the mjminer:
...then open file shabal64-darwin.s in any text editor and replace the single quote with double quote on line 30 as bellow 64 'ptr' field (8 bytes) to 64 "ptr" field (8 bytes)Why can't this be fixed?

@daWallet maybe this needed to be fixed only on macOS, this repo still supports linux. I am not sure about this lines.
