I will try my 1920X with 128GB RAM/8*10K SAS HDD(raid 0) by using Linux soon and post the result this weekend.
Hi, new windows v0.1.5 is out, 0.1.5
New PlotManager GUI
Madmax ploter:
- New params:
-K, --rmulti2 arg Thread multiplier for P2 (default = 1) - Bug fixes
Tell me please what is -K, and defalut is 1 , but what is good , max is 16, maybe set 16?
thanks
Making “-k 2” brings a plot about 3 minutes faster.
Testing -k (max on system threads)…
Will report back
Some results:
On an Intel i5 10th gen machine, 6c 12th.
Before the 0.1.5 update: 86 minutes per plot
With -k 2: 83 minutes per plot
With -k 12: 81 minutes per plot
On an i9, the difference is less, like 1 or 2 minutes.
-f or -k? only 2min is fast?
Corrected! … … / … … … / … … … / … … … / …
What happens when the HDD is full if you do -n -1?
Plotting stops. …/…
Okay, great! I was worried it would just try to replot indefinitely
Does it check the remaining space before creating the next plot or do you end up with the last plot in temp not being able to be copied?
- Until full, plotter copies to the final directory
- When final directory is full, plotter renames file and keeps them on the plotting disk, until it’s full too
- When it’s too full to create new tables, plotting completely stops.

Dear,
I am test 32 core amd epyc 7502p , 128ram , ws2019 , speed plot is very slow , why? -n 10 -r 32 -K 16 -u 512 -v 128 -t C:\ -2 C:\ -d D:\
Windows or Linux?
-r setting is too high. Try 16.
Are you using NVMes for -t and -2?
Windows Server 2019 , but cpu is 32 cores , yes NVMes.
I am try 16 for -r , and the process is twice as slow as Ryzen™ 9 3900x
And I am setup -c xch1vmxy45… , but in process is Pool Puzzle Hash: 66cc4ad0… it is ok,?
Amd 3900x

Hi
i want to setup madmax and i m trying to find the best installation for my pc.
i dont have enough memory for RAMdrive.
threadripper PRO 3975WX
4 X 32GB RAM
2 X 1TB for win10pro (RAID 1)
4 X 2GB Corsair MP600 PRO (Raid 0) for plotting
and i m thinking to put one 1GB SSD between Plotting and Farming drivers for faster end plotting.
can you suggest any settings that can fetch me max plots?
first test
