06:27:25 <tevador> the problem is that pools won't implement it - they simply don't care about anything but their own profits
06:27:36 <tevador> it was the same with self-select
06:48:49 <tevador> this is madness: https://sinovate.io/x25x.pdf
06:52:54 <sech1> let's call RandomX "X10^512R"
06:53:17 <sech1> no, 2^512, whatever
06:53:31 <sech1> X13407807929942597099574024998205846127479365820592393377723561443721764030073546976801874298166903427690031858186486050853753882811946569946433649006084096R
12:14:23 <hyc> what a bunch of morons
12:15:56 <hyc> chip densities continue to double every 18 months
12:16:39 <hyc> which means that if you want to keep adding N algorithms to make it too expensive to fabricate, you have to keep doubling the number of algorithms
12:48:17 <hyc> considering our price has basically doubled in the past few months, surprised hashrate hasn't increased further
12:48:29 <hyc> profitability should be way up right now
13:15:49 <sech1> hyc https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/monero-mining_profitability.html#3m
13:16:12 <sech1> it's at the same level as it was on December 10th
13:16:38 <sech1> and network was at 875 MH/s on December 10th
13:30:25 <gingeropolous> its gonna get interesting when moon happens
13:32:50 <gingeropolous> maybe in my free time i'll make a thing to launch a pool from scratch
13:33:07 <gingeropolous> i've always gotten like halfway with Snipa's scripts before something distracts me
13:33:33 <gingeropolous> but i imagine when moon happens they'll be a lot of AWS / any cloud stuff
13:33:42 <gingeropolous> be best if that kind of hashrate gets on its own pool
13:34:08 <gingeropolous> you used to be able to share AWS images
13:34:52 <asymptotically> gingeropolous: it's probably best to use something like ansible to provision and update everything
13:35:24 <gingeropolous> yeah see thats where im like damnit i don't wanna figure out another thing with a l33t name
13:35:53 <gingeropolous> but if u know how......
16:16:26 <cohcho> jtgrassie: are you mining alt chain on monerop.com?
16:16:44 <cohcho> mainnet alt chain*
19:45:00 <sech1> I've finished JIT implementation for Navi and it's very memory bottlenecked
19:45:34 <sech1> I could reduce core clock from 1750 to 900 MHz and hashrate only dropped from 549 to 522 h/s
19:45:45 <sech1> btw it's 522 h/s @ 55 W
19:46:01 <sech1> 5500 XT running at 900/1860 MHz (core/mem)
19:46:29 <sech1> I can't change voltage, I think it can be tuned more to reduce power
19:48:26 <tevador> you need to transplant the HBM from your vega :P
19:49:40 <tevador> the performance is similar to what RX550 used to do with CN
19:51:44 <sech1> 5500 XT is still 25-30% better than RX 570 8GB at the same bandwidth/tflops
19:51:52 <sech1> so Navi is a better architecture for RandomX
19:52:11 <sech1> I think much better because GPU core can handle this hashrate at only 900 MHz
19:52:44 <sech1> but memory is a bottleneck
19:52:57 <sech1> if only Navi had big instruction/data caches...
19:53:20 <Inge-> Big Navi :P
20:54:03 <jtgrassie> cohcho: yeah looks like something up with monero daemon. it can't find any peers
21:28:35 <tevador> jtgrassie: http://monerop.com/ is your pool?
21:34:07 <jtgrassie> yes
21:34:27 <jtgrassie> but the daemon it's using isn't syncing right now
21:54:34 <tevador> height looks OK to me
21:59:41 <jtgrassie> yeah it does now, i unwedged the daemon
23:47:55 <hyc> 10H/s/W
23:48:01 <hyc> not earth shattering
