Version 1.0 - May 9, 2011
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- jansson 2.0 compatibility
|
|
|
|
|
- correct off-by-one in date (month) display output
|
|
|
|
|
- fix platform detection
|
|
|
|
|
- improve yasm configure bits
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 0.8.1 - March 22, 2011
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Make --user, --pass actually work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add User-Agent HTTP header to requests, so that server operators may
|
|
|
|
|
more easily identify the miner client.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fix minor bug in example JSON config file
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 0.8 - March 21, 2011
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Support long polling: http://deepbit.net/longpolling.php
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Adjust max workload based on scantime (default 5 seconds,
|
|
|
|
|
or 60 seconds for longpoll)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Standardize program output, and support syslog on Unix platforms
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Suport --user/--pass options (and "user" and "pass" in config file),
|
|
|
|
|
as an alternative to the current --userpass
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 0.7.2 - March 14, 2011
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add port of ufasoft's sse2 assembly implementation (Linux only)
|
|
|
|
|
This is a substantial speed improvement on Intel CPUs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Move all JSON-RPC I/O to separate thread. This reduces the
|
|
|
|
|
number of HTTP connections from one-per-thread to one, reducing resource
|
|
|
|
|
usage on upstream bitcoind / pool server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 0.7.1 - March 2, 2011
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Add support for JSON-format configuration file. See example
|
|
|
|
|
file example-cfg.json. Any long argument on the command line
|
|
|
|
|
may be stored in the config file.
|
|
|
|
|
- Timestamp each solution found
|
|
|
|
|
- Improve sha256_4way performance. NOTE: This optimization makes
|
|
|
|
|
the 'hash' debug-print output for sha256_way incorrect.
|
|
|
|
|
- Use __builtin_expect() intrinsic as compiler micro-optimization
|
|
|
|
|
- Build on Intel compiler
|
|
|
|
|
- HTTP library now follows HTTP redirects
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 0.7 - February 12, 2011
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Re-use CURL object, thereby reuseing DNS cache and HTTP connections
|
|
|
|
|
- Use bswap_32, if compiler intrinsic is not available
|
|
|
|
|
- Disable full target validation (as opposed to simply H==0) for now
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 0.6.1 - February 4, 2011
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fully validate "hash < target", rather than simply stopping our scan
|
|
|
|
|
if the high 32 bits are 00000000.
|
|
|
|
|
- Add --retry-pause, to set length of pause time between failure retries
|
|
|
|
|
- Display proof-of-work hash and target, if -D (debug mode) enabled
|
|
|
|
|
- Fix max-nonce auto-adjustment to actually work. This means if your
|
|
|
|
|
scan takes longer than 5 seconds (--scantime), the miner will slowly
|
|
|
|
|
reduce the number of hashes you work on, before fetching a new work unit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 0.6 - January 29, 2011
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fetch new work unit, if scanhash takes longer than 5 seconds (--scantime)
|
|
|
|
|
- BeeCee1's sha256 4way optimizations
|
|
|
|
|
- lfm's byte swap optimization (improves via, cryptopp)
|
|
|
|
|
- Fix non-working short options -q, -r
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 0.5 - December 28, 2010
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Exit program, when all threads have exited
|
|
|
|
|
- Improve JSON-RPC failure diagnostics and resilience
|
|
|
|
|
- Add --quiet option, to disable hashmeter output.

|
|
|
