Round time and mining efficiency - advice please
-
@socalguy If there are no errors in the miner, then plot check won't help - there's nothing to fix.
@Jackk78 I assume the external drive is connected via USB 2.0? It's going to be a little slower, but 22 seconds is still okay. Internal drives will be much faster.
If you look in Task Manager -> Processes, and sort by memory, what's using all the RAM ?
-
@haitch There are no errors with the miner, I believe that it works fine. Yes, it is connected via 2.0 USB. The most of the ram is used by javaw, svchost and java. These 3 are the most hungry.
-
@Jackk78 Win7?
-
@Jackk78
this is how the miner looks like
-
@Dario's-wallet
yes
-
@Jackk78 win 7 could be the issue - I've got three instances of the jMiner (OpenCL miner) running on my Win 10 box, and the largest is using 350MB. I'm a little surprised you've got java.exe and javaw.exe running - I'd have expected just java.
-
@Jackk78 Did you Try Blago's miner ?
-
@Castiel
no, I have not tried that yet, but i will
-
@Jackk78 Blagos miner are the Default/AVX miners in the AIO - so yes, you did try them :)
-
@haitch
ok... I will connect the hdd to my laptop, which is running on win10. it is not as powerful as my desktop, but maybe it will run better.
-
@haitch
:) than yes. As I have said, I am new to all this and I have no idea what am I doing :) I am glad that I managed to get this far. :)
-
does everything look ok from the printscr? is it working as it should, under the given circumstances (win7, high mem usage, so on)?
-
@Jackk78 It looks okay - but until you increase the size of your plots I'd consider a different pool. with 2TB you'll not find a lot of deadlines on the burst-team pool.
-
@haitch
yes, I know that I have to change the poll.
thank you guys for all your support and advice. it was a pleasure meeting a united, strong and helpful community. whish you all the best.

Hello again guys. It seams I have a problem and I dont know what to do anymore, so I need your help. I changed my external hdd from one computer to another, I opened a new wallet, changed the reward assignment to a new pool, but after more than 30 min and around 6 or 7 blocks, I still get the error : failed to submit nonce to pool, error code: 1004 - burst accounts reward recipient does not match pool`s account . I tried with pool.burstcoin.biz (the 1 BurstCoin was credited from my account), and after 1 hour, still the same error. I changed than to pool.burstcoin.eu, still the same error ( 2 BurstCoins were credited from my account, because i tried to change 2 times in the past hour) and still the same error. Why is this not working? thx
-
@Jackk78 Did you create a new plot file? (plot files are specific to each wallet)
-
no, i created a new wallet on the other computer.
-
@Jackk78 I recently moved over to a new pool and was getting the same error as you. It took what felt like forever (3 hours I think) to get it going. You might want to retry and submit the reward assignment.
Oh, did you download and install a new db file? I'm sure you did, just wanted to check. :)
-
:) it started somehow. long, long time, but it is working now. thx

Guys, i`m losing my mind here :) Every single time I modify the jminer.properties, it jumps back to the original configuration. I am trying to modify the ConnectionTimeout from 6 sec to 10 or 12 or whatever, just a little higher than 6, because the miner wants me to increase it. And I cant! it jumps back to 6, every single time. I closed the wallet, the miner, restarted the computer, and it jumps back again to 6 sec. I hate 6 sec, I want more :) How can this file be changed? Is there some other file that needs to be changed first? I even tried to put the file on read only mode, but the miner will not start this way, it needs to flip back to 6 sec so I can lose my mind on probably an obvious thing, that I can not see right now. :) So, please guys, help :) Thx
