ConfigOption/waves

waves

The number of waves to use for SurfMiner. Each wave needs 1GB of RAM and reads through the snowfield. The waves maintain distance from each other. For example, if you are using field 8 (256gb) and have 2 waves, they will start at block 0 and 128 respectively.

Most likely to saturate your IO, you will need at least 2 waves so that one can be reading while the other is processing.

Default

No default.
