miner ram
-
i have been having some trouble using the wallet plotter and the cpu plotter. when i run either one, it will do about 12% on my hdd and stop while calculating the 25% before writing. i troubleshooted and found that the application pushes all its memory into my standby ram preventing it from calculating the next stagger. so my ram usage on task manager is around 20% application usage and the rest is standby. no free ram is available because all the standby is being used by the plotter. it will not release standby to itself. is this a bug with the version i am using or is there another problem? i have tried using the manual wplotter and doing it in increments while emptying ram with RAMMAP, but im getting a 1TB storage drive and i do not want to empty my ram 500 times per drive and do all that batch file making. I would appriciate the help

@ddos
Which Stagger do you use?
Your RAM?
-
@Blago im not sure i understand your question. i usually use a 3 gig stagger on my 8 gig ram laptop. but 2 gigabytes are always in use by the applications other than the plotter. also, if you could tell me how to reconfigure the stagger for the wallet plotter that would help a bunch
-
@ddos try
%AppData%\Roaming\BurstWallet\plotter\wplotgenerator.exe xxx yyy zzz 2048 /aasync mode, need Stagger * 2 of RAM
and close miner while plotting
-
@Blago here's the thing though. even when i manually do that, it still fills my standby
i tried doing a 1 gig stagger and it still filled it
my miner is not open while im plotting
btw, what is async mode
-
@ddos async - calculate plot's part and write it to disk at same time
and try this http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ssd-performance-tweak,2911-5.html (disable EnablePrefetcher and EnableSuperfetch)

@Blago ok i think i figured it out. i had my system automatically allocating my page file. i set it to be 1 gigabyte and the page file stayed low. thanks for the help
-
@Blago one more question, when i first used the plotter through the wallet i configured it to use 3 gigabytes of ram. how can i change or reconfigure the plotter in the wallet without having to manually plot every time?
-
@ddos i have that same problem
the plotter just gets stuck!
-
@ddos i'd used .bat for plotting, manually.
-
@kevinfml your Stagger must be < 1/2 of free RAM
-
@ddos which software you are using?
