How to set up DAG file caching for ZIL mining?
You can set up special parameter to some mining clients to cache the DAG file for mining ZIL.
Note This setting may not work on GPU cards that have less than 8 GB of memory.
In TeamRedMiner you can add the following parameter at the end of the config:
--eth_dag_cache=0
In Gminer you can add the following parameter at the end of the config:
--cache_dag 1
In lolMiner CLI format you can add the following parameter at the end of the config:
--enablezilcache
In lolMiner JSON format you can add the "ENABLEZILCACHE": 1 parameter after "COIN" parameter:
{
"MINERSTAT" :
{
"DEVICES": "AUTO",
"APIPORT": 3333,
"COIN": "ETHASH",
"ENABLEZILCACHE": 1,
"POOLS": [
{"POOL": "(POOL:ETH-EZIL)",
"PORT": "(AUTO)",
"USER": "(WALLET:ETHZIL)",
"PASS": "x"}
]
}
}
In T-Rex CLI format you can add the following parameter at the end of the config:
--extra-dag-epoch 0
In T-Rex JSON format you can add the "extra-dag-epoch": 0 parameter after "algo" parameter:
{
"pools": [
{
"user": "(WALLET:ETHZIL)",
"worker": "(WORKER)",
"url": "(POOL:ETH-EZIL)",
"pass": "x"
}
],
"no-nvml": true,
"api-bind-http": "127.0.0.1:4068",
"json-response": true,
"pci-indexing":true,
"retries": 3,
"retry-pause": 5,
"timeout": 500,
"no-watchdog":true,
"algo": "ethash",
"extra-dag-epoch": 0,
"exit-on-cuda-error": true,
"exit-on-connection-lost": false
}
