Quick Linux Question
-
That sucks, I was just curious if id get better dl times, these suck, i see ppl with less hdd space getting better times.
-
@jstoner82 I have a 120GB miner on my phone that won a block .... it's down to the luck of the draw.
-
Personally I find more good deadlines when i seperate each nonce block (of say 16384) into multiple files, so it reads 4gb plot files each and grabs a bunch of nonces from it.
But OS's are the same like @luxe said, no advatage.

Roger that, thanks for the input. I currently have 7 drives. 5 x 500GB drives, each have 1 500GB plot, 1 x 1TB drrive, plotted with a 1 tb plot and a 2TB drive that I am having poblems with, have only one 500GB plot on it working. Thinking about replotting the 2tb drrive uing xplotter with a single 2TB file. The plotter inside the burst client or win aio givess me an error mssage saying it would plot fater if it had admin priv's, So I am manually doing with xplotter so I can run it with admin rights.

I found wplotgenerator to be the fatest tbh, but depending on which miner you use (I suggest Blago's) depends on your return.
-
I have been playing around with both Blago's miner and Jminer, no real improvement using jminer though.
-
@jstoner82 I'm Linux guy and I prefer Linux in any implementation, except in mining! Windows have better drivers for GPUs and other components.
In Burst case, NTFS is an advantage.
-
I prefer Linux over windows. Its stable and no viruses. Windows I always find some bugs at unexpected moments with blue screens and unspecified errors. I only go to windows when there is no option such as games.
-
wplotgenerator is only faster because it doesnt optimize the plot. Over all xplotter is faster because it does both.
-
@tross Oh really, I was not aware xplotter optizes plots as well. Thank you for the heads up. I was about to start working on optimizing my plots, so you just save me a lot of time. Thank you buddy!
