kolet commented 6 years ago

hi, for instance i have 2-4 gpus, how can i use them all at ones to Generate an address ?

-d 2 3 4 wont work neither -d 1 -d 2 -d 3

it will select only 1 gpu at the time.

Run multiple processes. The work is probabilistic, so running multiple instances won't duplicate effort, it'll reduce the time it takes for an address to generate. Only downside is that they won't all auto-top when an address is generated, so you'll have to check on it periodically.

Yep, this is covered in the README under How can you use multiple devices?
