hello guys,
if same question already answered i am sorry. i did not see.
i have i7 8k
128 gb ram
on windows

i am plotting with disk cuda around 44 mins. no compressing.
if i start plotting with gigahorse compressing 0 am i saw same minute per plot file ? any idea ?

327

Looks like your running out of VRAM. You might try adjusting streams from 4 to 3.

328

I don’t believe compression 0 is an option for GPU or CPU, has to be 1-9 when using Gigahorse.

329

Try to turn off swap memory

swapoff -a

330

it seems to work and even already on Windows, just “-S 3” and I’m struggling for a week …

@madMAx43v3r I noticed that you quit compiling Gigahorse for the aarch64 (RPi4). I used this to farm uncompressed pool plots. Am I ok to just continue using the old build of Gigahorse-farmer? Other than my 30 or 40 TB on my RPi4, the rest of my harvesters compressed and have GPUs. Just wondering what I should do about these USB drives that are linked to my RPi4?

332

Is the Gigahorse cuda_plotter on my computer normal or weird?
The first plot takes about 13 minutes, but each of the subsequent plots takes about 21 minutes, although I already define 2 destination by “-d Y: -d Z:”. The 8 minutes is caused by the copy process?

333

I put it on two NVMe (-t and -2) processes, plotting takes place on -2 and from -t (-t can be SSD) it is copied easily.

334

Thank you for the tip, I’ll try it.

335

The latest versions are not relevant for RPi, they only added OpenCL farming support, which is not supported on RPi.

Hi max i have installed gigahorse node and plotting c7 and c8 plots. However when i check farm summary only my local plota both og nft uncompressed plots and compressed plots is seen by gigahorse. My remotte harvester all uncompressed nft plots are not detected.

When i use the original chia client gui , the remote harvester shows up. What could be the problem? Thanks

337

Have you installed the gigahorse software on the harvesters as well?

338

Yes, need to use Gigahorse for remote harvesters as well.

Thank you both for the responses. I installed gigahorse on the harvester and run the harvester from there and it worked :slight_smile:

Now when running c8 plots it just stopped at P1 and stuck from there. Rebooted my windows machine and still got the same. Tried c7 plots and still no luck. Powershell is stuck. I will get some screen shots when i get the chance.

341

Probably not enough free RAM

342

I have a 128gb or ram and using -2 and also -M 64 on the cmd line

Crashes when making c5,c6,c7 and c8 plots and it works on c4 plots but after 5 plots it crashes again…

343

What type of video card are you using?

344

Im using a 3070 msi. It was odd because it was working fine for c8 plots then after like 20 plots it crashed even after reboot of computer.
