[Bug][NVIDIA][970] Slow hash rate after about 2hrs #22
Comments
@Blackskyliner Thanks for the detailed bug report. I think the GPU is completely off at some point, 40 Sol/s that you see is coming from your AVX2 CPU's as far as I can tell. Can you run only with |
About the remaining 40 Sol/s I also thought it may be my CPU only. But after some testing it only gets up to about 25 Sol/s. I will watch on my next mining run, going to bed now, if it happens again, on GPU only. Maybe I will also be able to get a good Thanks for the fast reaction 😃. Only CPU (
Only GPU (

So it happened again, but I guess the last time I was just lucky, a benchmark did not trigger the reset of that phenomen, I guess it was a lucky one. But it is indeed all-time-slow so my guess would stay that I somehow hit the slow-memory I guess. But why does it not reset though... As at the minute the program gets disconnected the CUDA stack should cleanup after itself or at least free stuff... EDIT: Added CUDA information. Running with debug enabled on slow job:

Closed all Applications (e.G. Mail, Firefox) aaaand it's working again. What I don't get I can even do graphics work on this machine while mining, okay the speed will be only at 50% most of the time, but it works. So why does it seem that some application combination can lock the GPU only for those mining relevant tasks... But I got aclue where to debug next time when this is happening. Maybe I can identify the application or combination which is causing that problem... Also compiled https://github.com/phvu/cuda-smi so next time I can get a view of the Memory usage (or maybe that program resetted the CUDA stack too much unknown variables atm. have to reduce those next time and try/check after each interaction with the system) Funfact about 42% of the GPU memory is always reserved. Its even reserved now, even after a decent cold reboot -- seems to be normal macOS behavior on my end... ./cuda-smi

If you find a certain combination I'll try with my setup too (MP 4.1 with GTX960). Memory stats is more or less the same with yours
