Demo files for http://www.slicify.com
PrimeCoinMining.java
This is a fairly complete example of running primecoin mining across a number of Slicify nodes. You can also grab the PrimecoinMinerDemo.bat / PrimecoinMinerDemo.jar files if you don't want to recompile
- Run the program, and enter your slicify username/password
- Enter some bids manually in the website
- The program will automatically pick up any bookings that you get. For each booking:
- Run apt-get update, apt-get to install the libraries, download the mining client, and restart it
- Scan for [STATS] records and print out the summary info (chains/d)
- Detect 'force disconnect' messages, and other errors and automatically restart the client session.
POVRayRender.java
This is a simple minimal/command line demo running POVRay renderer on one node.
- Enter your slicify & mediafire username/password
- Books a single node
- Connects to the node using SSH
- Installs povray 3.6
- Installs plowshare (connector for mediafire)
- Runs a test render (povray -iscenes/advanced/benchmark.pov -H768 -W1024)
- Uploads the result to your mediafire account
- Calculates timing info, so you can see the breakdown of setup/rendering/file transfer times
LuxRenderDemo.java
This is a slightly more complex demo running LuxRender renderer over multiple nodes.
- Enter your slicify & mediafire username/password
- Books multiple nodes
- Connects/installs LuxRender on each node
- Slices a test render image into multiple segments, running different segments on different nodes
- Uploads the resulting partial renders to MediaFire
- Downloads them back to the local PC and reassembles them
If you just want to try the demo, just download the precompiled LuxRenderDemo.jar and LuxRenderDemo.bat (requires Java 1.7).
