Extremely High CPU Temps vs CPUMiner

Open LPX55 opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Great job on this miner, I'm definitely seeing at least 10-15% higher hashrates on YespowerNull.

I'm also seeing 15% increase in CPU temps as well 😅 Almost dropped my beer when I saw 100 degrees. Anyone have any idea how to control this better (besides buying a better cooler)? Perhaps something like a bash script that monitors the temps and if it exceeds a certain threshhold, takes a 30 second break to cool off?

yes, I can recommend cpulimit
