timonmat/xmr-stak-cpu repository overview

⁠What is XMR-Stak-CPU?

XMR-Stak is a universal Stratum pool miner. This is the a CPU specific build.

This docker image autoconfigures threads based on core count. All xmr-stak-cpu's config.txt variables can be configured with docker run environment variables.

⁠How to use this image

docker run -itd --restart unless-stopped -e WALLET_ADDRESS='' -e POOL_PASSWORD='' -e POOL_ADDRESS=''  --name xmr-stak-cpu timonmat/xmr-stak-cpu

or with 4 manually configured threads and stats on http port 80.

docker run -itd --restart unless-stopped \
-e WALLET_ADDRESS='<your-monero-wallet>' \
-e POOL_PASSWORD='docker-xsc:[email protected]' \
-e POOL_ADDRESS='pool.supportxmr.com:7777' \
-e THREAD_CONFIG='{"low_power_mode" : false, "no_prefetch" : true, "affine_to_cpu" : 0 },{"low_power_mode" : false, "no_prefetch" : true, "affine_to_cpu" : 1 },{"low_power_mode" : false, "no_prefetch" : true, "affine_to_cpu" : 2 },{"low_power_mode" : false, "no_prefetch" : true, "affine_to_cpu" : 3 },' \
-e HTTPD_PORT=80 \
-p 80:80 \
--name xmr-stak-cpu timonmat/xmr-stak-cpu

the image starts up a number of threads equivalent to core count, which works best when you have for example 2 physical processors, and the (L3 cache/2) is higher than core count on one processor.

THREAD_CONFIG="" environment variable can be used to manually specify cpu.txt config.

Defaults to Monero mining, but you can mine Aeon by setting env variable -e CURRENCY="aeon"

You can set all config.txt GitHub⁠ variables as docker run environment variables. Just use all caps in env var names.

Large pages need a properly set up OS. Run this on host side.

sudo sysctl -w vm.nr_hugepages=128 && ulimit -l 262144

⁠Thanks!

This is a fork from Minecoins/docker-xmr-stak-cpu docker image, but with added env variable support, so thanks Minecoins!
