Hi, i would like to know if there are something i can do, to skip benchmarking. since i am running this on a cloud pc. so everytime i run this it takes too much time to benchmarking. I know there were a solution like, direct use the original miners. But i like the feature of this mining that can auto choose between GPU and CPU, if it exist. and also a central monitoring system.

Regards!

There is an central monitor system it's rbminer.net
There is also an option in the config to shorten or speed up the benchmarking process in exchange for some less accurate benchmark values offcourse, but I forgot what it was.

Actually, a Speed-Start feature might prove as pretty useful. We could start with all user's average for a distinct GPU or CPU (if available in the central monitoring database) - I will think about that.

A second approach would be to backup all miner stats of a similar rig and copy them into the Stats folder of the new rig.

Okey i will try it, but i think, the first solution would be great. So we could use the best setting available from the central monitoring database. Its a slightly great feature, to copy and use best available setting for same device. I would wait for it.

The second solution was good though but it doesn't solve a problem if the cloud machine was resetted before the benchmark even done. Thankyou!

Update core
b2514bb 
- bump version to v4.7.3.1
- update MiniZ API
- add Fastlane for Benchmark (issue #1651), new parameters in config.txt:
  - "EnableFastlaneBenchmark": set to 1 if you want to skip all benchmarks and dowload (very inaccurate) hashrate and powerdraw values from rbminer.net instead [default=0]
  - "FastlaneBenchmarkTypeCPU" = if EnableFastlaneBenchmark="1": choose the value-set for CPU miners (avg, min or max) [default=avg]
  - "FastlaneBenchmarkTypeGPU" = if EnableFastlaneBenchmark="1": choose the value-set for GPU miners (avg, min or max) [default=avg]
  - "EnableFastlaneBenchmarkMissing" = if EnableFastlaneBenchmark="1": set to 1 if you want to benchmark all device/miners/algos not found on rbminer.net [default=0]

@oyi77 I have added a new "Fastlane for Benchmark" feature. If enabled, RainbowMiner will try to download average, minimum or maximum values from rbminer.net, instead of running all benchmarks locally.

@RainbowMiner thank you for your hardwork dude. RainbowMiner is a perfect tools to mining with a lot of great features.
By the way, where does the new feature take place?

Please wait with testing, until I give you the final ok. During testing, I found out some smaller issues with that new feature. Will be solved soon.
