Improvements

  • Optimization of memory and work in kernel - expected 30% improvement
  • Devfund is now part of the miner (can be turned off)
  • Experimental OpenCL integration. Performance was worse compared to same NVidia card. Specification of GPU device is done via --opencl-device and the index number of the device (starting from 0). The OpenCL capability seem not to work for AMD (was tested and ran successfully on NVIDIA)
  • Added --no-gpu option to mine only CPU

Note:
Currently OpenCL and CUDA cannot run together.
OpenCL part was not tested thoroughly, and is subject to possible crashes
