Has anyone plotted over 20TB with CPU, if so how long did it take?
-
What sort of nvidia card do you have?
-
@gpedro You were going slow then .... I did 56TB in < 2 weeks. Single R9-280X plotter
-
@haitch Seeings as you gpu plotted im getting this error when i type the command
gpuplotgenerator.exe list platforms
[ERROR] Unknown [list] command
-
@tylerk07 it's: "gpuPlotGenerator.exe listPlatforms" case sensitive ....
-
Im following this thread for setting it up,

-
@tylerk07 It also depends on the processor. With an i7-4790K processor using 8 Cores I can do 5TB every 24 Hours.

@haitch Yeah i used 2 Laptops from 3 years ago (one with AMD quad core and one with Intel i3) to plot this drives and i only used the CPU... x(
One of my CPU's get 3500 nonces per min and the other get 1500 nonces per min...
-
@haitch Sorry i copy pasted it so it was case sensitive when i did it. I followed the thread exactly.. what could be the issue?
-
@tylerk07 Well in the post above you have a space between the "list" and "platforms" and a lowercase 'p" in platforms, it has to be exactly - "listPlatforms" - alternatively, do gpuplotgenerator setup, then "1"
-
@haitch ok great that has worked so far! im nearly there! if my starting plot is zero, what should the stagger be? ive got a 7950 3GB
-
@haitch okay ive done something wrong....
gpuPlotGenerator.exe generate 0 0 "E:\Path to\plots" BURST-SGPY-CCGY-SRDJ-GD6KQ 0 3000 1024 1024

@tylerk07 gpuPlotGenerator.exe generate direct E:\Path to\plots<numeric account>_0_3072_1024
The filename has to be one continuous name, with your numeric account_starting nonce_number of nonces_stagger.
The number of nonces has to be a multiple of your stagger - so with a stagger of 1024, do 3072 rather than 3000. To get the number of nonces you want to plot: (<space in bytes> / 262144) / stagger. Round down - so 10372.123 -> 10372, then multiply by stagger.
-
@haitch i totally screwed it up thats the cpu details, i seen you went offline so i quickly created a new thread where I listed all the cmd gpu details
-
@tylerk07 In your devices.txt you need to configure the device to be used - in your case use:
0 0 8192 128 8192
Then on the command line, as I specified: numeric account_starting nonce_number of nonces_stagger

This post is deleted!

@haitch I'm clearly stupid because I still cant work it out.. I'm so close though..

In devices.txt put:
0 0 8192 128 8192
for your command line do:
gpuplotgenerator generate direct E:\Path to\plots\16952828084282473150_0_8192_1024
where: e:\parth\to\plots is the directory you want the plots to go into
16952828084282473150 is your numeric account ID (and yes, that's your account if your burst address is BURST-SGPY-CCGY-SRDJ-GD6KQ)
0 is the starting nonce
8192 is the number of nonces to plot
1024 is your stagger size

@tylerk07 Use the AIO wallet to get your Wallet ID write a small plot and it is numbers only. 012345678......._0_TOTALNONCES_STAGGER

@haitch said in Has anyone plotted over 20TB with CPU, if so how long did it take?:
gpuplotgenerator generate direct E:\Path to\plots\16952828084282473150_0_8192_1024
This is what I got from that,

@tylerk07 don't literraly use e:\plath\to\plots - use the directory where the plots are to go, eg if you want them in d:\ use d:, if you want them in e:\plots, use e:\plots
