This is a multi-threaded CPU miner, fork of pooler's cpuminer (see AUTHORS for list of contributors).
This specific fork has AES optimizations for many algorithms, they are automatically used if your compiler, your CPU and the algorithm in question support it.
git clone https://github.com/hmage/cpuminer-opt
cd cpuminer-opt
sudo apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libjansson-dev libgmp-dev automake g++
./build.shInstead of ./build.sh you can execute the following commands :
./autogen.sh
CFLAGS="-O3 -march=native -Wall" CXXFLAGS="$CFLAGS -std=gnu++11" ./configure --with-curl
makeTo start mining
./cpuminer -a algo ...prerequisites :
msys mingw_w64 pthreads, curl and openssl
Install msys and mingw_w64, only needed once.
Unpack msys into C:\msys or your preferred directory.
Install mingw_w64 from win-builds. Follow instructions, check "msys or cygwin" and "x86_64" and accept default existing msys instalation.
Open a msys shell by double clicking on msys.bat. Note that msys shell uses linux syntax for file specifications, "C:" is mounted at "/c/".
Add mingw bin directory to PATH variable PATH="/c/msys/opt/windows_64/bin/:$PATH"
Instalation complete, compile cpuminer-opt
Unpack cpuminer-opt source files using tar from msys shell, or using 7zip or similar Windows program.
In msys shell cd to miner directory. cd /c/path/to/cpuminer-opt

Easiest way to get them on Debian-based distributions is to run:
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev libjansson-dev libcurl4-nss-devRun cpuminer --help to see options.
Use the --proxy option.
To use a SOCKS proxy, add a socks4:// or socks5:// prefix to the proxy host .
Protocols socks4a and socks5h, allowing remote name resolving, are also available since libcurl 7.18.0.
If no protocol is specified, the proxy is assumed to be a HTTP proxy.
When the --proxy option is not used, the program honors the http_proxy and all_proxy environment variables.
