minecore VS xmrig

MineCore! Now, with much easier Slax version: https://github.com/MineCoreLive/minecore

Free opinion (as system creator lol): use MineCore on Moneroocean 😉 https://github.com/MineCoreLive/minecore

I am trying to set up Minecore on bootable USB to try and do some Monero mining on an old laptop. I am able to create the USB and boot in to Tinycore but I can't seem to be able to enable persistence once i'm there.

I strongly suggest trying out the system I created exclusively for mining. You can run directly from a USB drive to test. Link: https://github.com/MineCoreLive/minecore

Basically, you can get a good idea of the performance of each processor (considering having at least 8gb of ram in any scenario to avoid bottlenecks) from the benckmark itself on xmrig.com, and/or by doing a basic search for the processor plus the term "hashrate" on Google. .. But, in order not to lose the habit (lol), I also recommend testing mining with this system: https://github.com/MineCoreLive/minecore (yes, i set it up), from a usb flash drive. Things like hugepages, msr, running as root are already set up. And all in a linux that uses a ridiculously small amount of system resources. It was set up to extract the largest possible hashate from any equipment (only need the processor, memory and internet connection), using MoneroOcean's xmrig and its ability to automatically change the algorithm to the most profitable currency at the moment.

A minimalist one... https://github.com/MineCoreLive/minecore

I am cpu mining on Moneroocean and I can see my rigs on the dashboard. I am playing with a gpu miner which is finally running but I do not see it on the dashboard. It is running for an hour now but it is not visible on https://moneroocean.stream/. Is this because the port is different? 10128 for gpu and 10343 for CPU. If so where can I see stats of my gpu rig.

So I've started monero mining on https://moneroocean.stream/ about like 3-4 hours agoMining on my RPi 4 with XMRig below is the pool details (got from ChuckNoris YT)

Over the last 12 hours or so 2 of my 3 CPU miners have stopped showing on the Monero Ocean interface at https://moneroocean.stream.

Check out the autoswitching version of xmrig (for CPUs) forked by monero ocean here: https://github.com/MoneroOcean/xmrig/releases/tag/v6.20.0-mo1

You can mine Ergo, ETC, or RVN on Monero Ocean and get paid in XMR. https://moneroocean.stream/

Don't forget to check out MoneroOcean, maybe it has already caught on to this wave. (Then it would all become easier for you.)

This is where moneroocean comes in. While it's not recommended to mine on a big pool (to avoid centralization of the Monero network), moneroocean lets you mine shitcoins and exchange them with Monero. They also provide a custom XMRig build for that purpose.

It is a bit confusing. When you're mining on a pool like Moneroocean then shares don't matter. They're just a way of proving to the pool that you've done a certain amount of work, and the pool will usually adjust things so you send shares often enough but not too often. Basically you don't have to worry about them. Check your balance on the pool's website, in this case https://moneroocean.stream/

Use your GPU to mine some other algo on MoneroOcean and receive the payment for mining in XMR… ,maximize the efficiencies of other Lagos that are designed for GPU mining and get more XMR
