XMRig-UPX

The original XMRig repository now supports the UPX2 algorithm, and thus this repository will no longer be maintained. Please see:

!Added support for Uplexa (cn/upx2 algorithm)

How to Mine uPlexa

GitHub Release Date GitHub license

XMRig-UPX is a high performance uPlexa (UPX) CPU miner, with official support for Windows and Linux. Originally based on cpuminer-multi with heavy optimizations/rewrites and removing a lot of legacy code, since version 1.0.0 completely rewritten from scratch on C++.

Table of contents

UPXTWO HARDFORK SUPPORT

  • use cryptonight-upx/1 for UPX variant 1
  • use cryptonight-upx/2 for UPX variant 2 (or use cryptonight-upxtwo)
  • use cryptonight-upx will revert to variant 1, post hardfork upx v1 will be deprecated
  • Autoswitching from v1 to v2 will not work due to memory changes

Also you can use configuration via config file, default name config.json.

Algorithm variations

  • av option used for automatic and simple threads mode (when you specify only threads count).
av Hashes per round Hardware AES
1 1 (Single) yes
2 2 (Double) yes
3 1 (Single) no
4 2 (Double) no
5 3 (Triple) yes
6 4 (Quard) yes
7 5 (Penta) yes
8 3 (Triple) no
9 4 (Quard) no
10 5 (Penta) no

HUGE PAGES unavailable

  • Run XMRig as Administrator.

Other information

  • No HTTP support, only stratum protocol support.

Maximum performance checklist

  • Idle operating system.
  • Do not exceed optimal thread count.
  • Use modern CPUs with AES-NI instruction set.
  • Try setup optimal cpu affinity.
  • Enable fast memory (Large/Huge pages).
