slow GPU assisted Proof of Capacity (PoC) Miner for Burstcoin (send data? computing data? speed HDDs?)
-
@RichBC Thank you for reply. No.3 is CPU.
I insert GPU boards in my PC are
1.AMD RX480
2.AMD RX 460Device 0 have max computing units more than others.
-
@Hajime Sorry I was not certain. Have you tried / what speed do you get on the other devices?

@RichBC In my opinion, HDD transfer speed.
1.PC internal SATA 6Gb/s drive x2
2.PC <- USB3.0 <- 5 HDDs (one box)
3.PC <-USB3.0 <- 10 HDDs (one box)
Total about 50TBPoC miner program load from one drive. (one file?) Do not parallel drives. Speed up and many computing in GPU when look like Blago. Blago load parallel load from HDDs.

@Hajime Having multiple drives sharing a USB3 Hub will to also be a bottleneck. I have all of mine with separate USB interfaces either directly to the main board or through 4 Channel PCI-e to USB cards.
With this setup and jminer I can scan 75TB in 10 seconds.

@RichBC Yes.
You are true when use Blago software and so on.
But this software access to only one drive (file?) every time.
Or this is problem that program access to one drive (file) every time?
-
@Hajime the jminer runs in parallel as well - it processes all drives simultaneously.
I'm a little confused - from the jminer.properties file you posted in the OP, you're only mining one directory, but the miner shows you mining 50TB.
Also, the miner output shows you haven't set your rewardassignment to the pool - so your mining work is not being accepted.
-
plotPaths=F:/Burstcoin/plotsSorry, how it's made your set up? 50TB in one folder as spanned volumes maybe? Because maybe only one plot path can create issues with the management of reader threads...
-
@haitch Bingo!
I set all files to one folder by symbolic link. I assigned drive letter andreaderThreads=20then PoC access multi drives.
Thank you very much guys.
Have a nice mining!
-
@Hajime With only one location, only one file at a time will be processed - by not using symbolic links and pointing the miner to all the individual locations, they'll process in parallel.
-
@haitch Yes boss!
