Plots in k25 with few RAM #355

Open Manzito13 opened 3 years ago

Manzito13 commented 3 years ago

Hello .. for those of us who have few resources and want to use RamDrive .. how can we plot in k25 format through the MAX code, using 2 temporary partitions in RAM and then depositing the final plots on an HDD? In the Official Client Chia I was able to plot in k25 using RamDrive but it would be very interesting to see how this works with MADMAX ... Thank you !!!

Why you want to plot k25 ?

Interestingly weird request!

Why you want to plot k25 ?

Yes .. as incredible as it may seem .. I must adapt to the resources that exist .. hehe .. I use 2 RamDrive partitions and in a term of 4:30 hours approx. I get the equivalent of a k32 plot (101.XXX KB). but I want to test this with the MADMAX system because with Chia Oficial I can only plot a maximum of 29 plots at a time ... and it is also surprising but cultivates the plots without problems

But why do you want to plot k25s? You can't do anything with them - the minimum plot size for farming is k32!

and not only that, I have tried it on the command line in Powershell and it does not work .. because it does not allow the k25 argument and throws a message in cmd saying that the minimum plotting is K32 ... it really is very strange ... that's why It would be great to try the MADMAX method using the k25 parameter but I would not really know how to do it ...

Despite the GUI showing those k=25 plots as farming, they will never win a reward on mainnet. Anything less than k=32 will be skipped over when proving.

That's what I thought - k25 is only for testnet and has no function on mainnet. @Manzito13 I suggest you delete those plots and begin plotting some k32s because you can't win anything with a k25.

I assume then that your answer clears all doubts about it .. thanks ... maybe someone should tell the developers to make the pertinent modifications so this no longer leads to confusion ...

ok .. thanks .. All doubts cleared then !!

Amazing !! .. it even tells me the estimated time to win ... haha ... anyway! ... Incredible2

How does one plot k33? I don't see a parameter option for it?

You can't, not yet: #25 , #65
