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

Mjminer plotter fork for Optimized Plots on macOS (CPU, AVX2, SSE4)posted in Plotter
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?
Described process of plotting/mining on macOS in this article:
https://steemit.com/burst/@k06a/efficient-burst-mining-on-macos-linuxIf you tried my fork and it works under your Linux, please write a comment with you Linux distribution and version.

RE: Linux Plotting/miningposted in Mining & Plotting
Today fixed macOS support for creepMiner (in
developmentbranch):
https://github.com/Creepsky/creepMiner/tree/developmentIs anyone interested in? I am using MacMini for mining (eats less than 85W)

@damncourier did you mean mshabal do not support 32bit?

RE: Linux Plotting/miningposted in Mining & Plotting
@damncourier thanks for reporting! Just fixed bug. Try newest version.

@damncourier can you give me command you used for plotting?

RE: Linux Plotting/miningposted in Mining & Plotting
@damncourier I've checked it by plotting and optimising same file with original version and comparing md5's than.

RE: Linux Plotting/miningposted in Mining & Plotting
Just finished unix/darwin plotter to work same way as XPlotter does: produce fully optimized plots directly. It requires super user rights to prealloc file without filling it zeroes. It is some kind of unsafe, because software may have access to old deleted files. But in case of plotter I think it is not a problem.
You can download and try from this branch:

https://github.com/r-majere/mjminer/pull/4I've tried it only on macOS, you can help me to test it on linux.

Does round time really matters?posted in Mining & Plotting
What values are normal for successful mining? Right now I have about 16 seconds for two 1TB drives. I know plots optimisation may deduce this time significantly, but does this time really matters? How much it can be?

RE: How to calculate the start nonce of the 2nd, 3rd...HDD to avoid overlapped.posted in Mining & Plotting
Are you sure about +1?
0+7630848 means 7630848 nonces from 0 to (7630848-1),
7630848+7630848 means 7630848 nonces from 7630848 to (7630848*2-1),
7630848*2+7630848 means 7630848 nonces from 7630848*2 to (7630848*3-1),
etc... -

@Blago thanks for your message, looks like 1 nonce gap will shrink your mining size.

Pool mining and reward transaction feesposted in Mining & Plotting
I am trying to start mining with my first 1.5TB HDD, and just got first reward from pool: 0.72659101 + 1(fee). Is it true that I mined 1.72BURST or I only mined 0.72? How to accumulate pool payments to minimise fees?

RE: Simple plotting process descriptionposted in Mining & Plotting
@Blago how do miner understand is file optimised or not? By filename only?
-
RE: Simple plotting process descriptionposted in Mining & Plotting
@Blago maybe to store MD5 of your plots and check it time to time?
-
RE: Simple plotting process descriptionposted in Mining & Plotting
@Blago will mining be able in case of gap in plots? Or second part of plots will not be useful until gap will be filled? So plot files contain no header, file configuration is right in filename?
-
RE: Simple plotting process descriptionposted in Mining & Plotting
@Blago this thread looks very promising but not contains nothing about format and file headers

Simple plotting process descriptionposted in Mining & Plotting
Is there any plot file format and plotting process description? I am going to implement own optimized plotter and can't find any simple description.
