I have some questions .

First for what do you mean elapsed ?

and second one is for the keys per thread.

i start this card with 5125 keys per therad.

start=0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000** next=00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000005999D27B069999C 6 different D27B06 end=0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000** blocks=15 threads=512 points=5120 compression=compressed device=0 elapsed=21891906 stride=1

and this card i start with 4125 keys per thread

start=0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000** next=0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000600038A4AC6CA02 9 different 38A4AC6CA end=0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000** blocks=15 threads=512 points=4125 compression=compressed device=1 elapsed=21838062 stride=1

and this card i start with 3125keys per thread

start=0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000** next=000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000073336B2423C8934 end=0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000*** blocks=15 threads=512 points=3125 compression=compressed device=4 elapsed=21989672 stride=1

do you see the numbers of this keys ?

why they try more numbers on lower keys per thread ?

First for what do you mean elapsed ?

elapsed is the total time in milliseconds

why they try more numbers on lower keys per thread ?

Are these different devices? Do they calculate at different speeds?

Coinpiet commented 6 years ago

no these are all gtx 1070 cards and make with 800k address file 125 Mkeys compressed

but these cards where i start with 4125 and 3125 ( i have to because wehn i want to start with 5125 there come an error) these cards make 9 instead of 6 diffrent keys

i made a test with one device

first try with device 0 i start with 5125 keys per thread

next=00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000005999DAF0A69999C

second try with device 0 i start with 3125 keys per thread

next=00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000005999DB56932119C

i dont understand that both times the device 0 run with 125 Mkeys

Coinpiet commented 6 years ago

my question now is what is better ?

brichard19 commented 6 years ago

i dont understand that both times the device 0 run with 125 Mkeys

Because there is a limit to how fast the device can operate. At some point increasing the number of points per thread does not increase performance any further.

Coinpiet commented 6 years ago

ok

Coinpiet commented 6 years ago

i know that i dont increase the speed

but look at the hex keys
