Main change
This is a bug fix release of Gemini 3h.
A few notable improvements:
- Improved CPU plotting performance by reducing idle time
- Improved plotting and proving performance on modern CPU architectures (like Zen 4)
- GPU plotting support with CUDA on Nvidia GPUs (CPU plotting is automatically disabled if supported GPU is detected, but can be re-enabled if desired)
- All CLI plotting options that are specific to CPU plotting have
--cpu
prefix now - Various low-level fixes and improvements
Known issues
It is known that for some time now there is a probability for plotting to stop arbitrarily and require farmer restart.
Ubuntu and Windows x86-64 builds
There are two versions:
- skylake: for Intel Skylake/AMD Ryzen processors and newer
- x86-64-v2: for older processors since ~2009 and some old VMs
