Usage

Command line options

  -a, --algo=ALGO         cryptonight (default) or cryptonight-lite
  -o, --url=URL           URL of mining server
  -O, --userpass=U:P      username:password pair for mining server
  -u, --user=USERNAME     username for mining server
  -p, --pass=PASSWORD     password for mining server
  -k, --keepalive         send keepalived for prevent timeout (need pool support)
  -r, --retries=N         number of times to retry before switch to backup server (default: 5)
  -R, --retry-pause=N     time to pause between retries (default: 5)
      --no-color          disable colored output
      --donate-level=N    donate level, default 5% (5 minutes in 100 minutes)
      --user-agent        set custom user-agent string for pool
  -B, --background        run the miner in the background
  -c, --config=FILE       load a JSON-format configuration file
  -l, --log-file=FILE     log all output to a file
      --nicehash          enable nicehash support
      --print-time=N      print hashrate report every N seconds
  -h, --help              display this help and exit
  -V, --version           output version information and exit

Auto-configuration specific options:
      --bfactor=[0-12]    run CryptoNight core kernel in smaller pieces
                          from 0 (ui freeze) to 12 (smooth), Windows default is 6
      --bsleep=N          insert a delay of N microseconds between kernel launches
      --max-gpu-threads=N limit maximum count of GPU threads

Config file.

GPU configuration now possible only via config file. Sample config:

{
    "background": false,
    "colors": true,
    "donate-level": 5,
    "log-file": null,
    "print-time": 60,
    "retries": 5,
    "retry-pause": 5,
    "syslog": false,
    "threads": [
        {
            "index": 0,
            "threads": 42,
            "blocks": 18,
            "bfactor": 6,
            "bsleep": 25
        }
    ],
    "pools": [
        {
            "url": "pool.minemonero.pro:5555",
            "user": "",
            "pass": "x",
            "keepalive": true,
            "nicehash": false
        }
    ]
}

If threads option not specified the miner will try automatically create optimal configuration for your GPUs.
