--high / --very-high model tiers now work for pool mining too. Recommended if you have a
high-VRAM rig and want to answer the larger (higher-reward) AI inference requests.

🧠 Pool mining now honors the model-tier flags

Previously, mining to the pool always loaded only DeepSeek-R1-8B and ignored --light / --high
/ --very-high — so a 24 GB+ or 48 GB+ rig could not serve the 32B / 70B models or answer the
larger on-chain AiRequests (which carry bigger inference rewards).

Now the tier flags take effect for pool and solo alike:

--light TinyLlama-1.1B (6 GB+ VRAM)
(default) DeepSeek-R1-8B (12 GB+, pool's OPoI model)
--high + DeepSeek-R1-32B (24 GB+)
--very-high + Llama-3.3-70B (48 GB+ single GPU)

The pool default (no flag) stays DeepSeek-R1-8B. Bigger models download on first use.

Carried forward

• v0.37 — resumable model downloads (survive Cloudflare cut-offs on slow links).
• v0.36 — OPoI inference results reach the pool. v0.35 — model fix + self-heal.
• v0.34 hashrate report · v0.33 xbinor.io gateway · v0.32 RTX 50-series fix.
