  • NEW PascalCoin ScreenSaver V1.0 - Windows only
  • Added ETHman and AwesomeMiner support (miner_getstat1, miner_restart, miner_reboot, miner_file, control_gpu)
    It is strongly recommended to NOT put rhminer in a loop in a script if you intend to use EthMan or AwseomeMiner.
  • Now starting rhminer without parameters will automatically use/load config.txt.
  • Added support Maxwell architecture 5.3 (Tegra Tegra (Jetson) TX1 / Tegra X1) on windows
  • Re-added Pascal architecture 6.0 (Quadro GP100, Tesla P100, DGX-1) that was mistakenly removed in 1.4
  • Re-added Pascal architecture 6.2 ( Integrated GPU on the NVIDIA Drive PX2, Tegra (Jetson) TX2) that was mistakenly removed in 1.4

Major gpu optimizations:
Gtx 1060 3gb 280 threads +196%
Gtx 1070 8gb 384 threads +218%
gtx 950 2gb 140 threads +226% [linux]

  • Fix : On linux, rhminer stall for ever when network is lost (cable unplug or switch/router crashes).
  • Fix : On very rare occasions, rhminer would stall at startup.
  • Fix : Opensource pool bug where work-ID stuck to the same ID, creating many invalid shares.
  • Fix : Duplicate/stale shares was high on cpu with with core count.
  • Add -configfile option with a config.xml example
  • Add extra option (+) to -cputhreads to enable mining on more threads that system's core/hyperthreads count (ex: on a i5 with 4 core -cputhreads +7 will mine on 7 threads instead of 4)

Version 1.3 (CPU only) with optimizations up to 260%

Major CPU optimizations. Up to 260% on some CPU
+155% on Xeon E52665
+260% on Intel i5 2th gen
+195% on Intel i5 4th gen
+250% on Intel Core 2

New commandline option -sseboost. This option will give up to 10% on some cpu. BUT can also make it slower on other. TEST it before using it, to assert it gives a boost to your cpu.

Cuda and Linux optimizations

  • Major optimization on cuda miner (+32% on gtx 1070 8gb, +37% on gtx 1060 3gb, +40% on gtx 950)
  • Simple optimization on Linux. Up to 5% depending on the cpu.

  • Optimization up to 7% faster on cuda (Tested on gtx 1070 8gb)
  • Optimization up to 5% faster on cpu (Tested on Xeon and i5 7th)
  • Fixed "unknown error" when disconnected from pool

More stable, slightly faster.

  • Fixed network error with coinotron and f2pool where miner was in limbo after pool disconnected.
  • Fixed miner not starting on cpu without SSe4.1
  • Fixed error where miners was rejecting shares due to wrong work package data.
  • Fixed 'Exit on too many rejected shares' that was not working properly
  • Added SSe detection
  • Fixed connection error when coinotron and f2pool randomly closing socket.
  • Minor memory optimizations

Various bugfix and some optimizations

  • Fixed wrong hashrate on linux. (a thread-concurrency bug made H/S show-up higher on linux.)
  • Minor code optimizations (up to 5% on certain system, more when not mining on all cores)
  • Fixed network error with coinotron and f2pool where miner was in limbo after pool disconnected.
  • Fix fail-over server feature
  • Fixed "no work timeout" that was exiting application instead of reconnecting to server.
  • Fixed testperformance feature so it show pure hash performance instead of raw simulation of solo/pool mining.
  • Fixed some typos
  • Fixed processpriority 2 that made Windows GUI lags. Performances may reduce, over time, if this processpriority is chosen. NOTE: New default processpriority is now 3.
  • Added processpriority 3. All miner threads are on high priority. Give a gain on certain system. Can create GUI lags.
  • Added "zero speed" watchdog. Miner will exit when speed is at zero for 60 sec
  • Added More stable hashrate
  • Added Faster work transfer time to miner threads
  • Added Faster share submission time
  • Change Speed output to show SMA20 of past raw speed readings
