Also you can use configuration via config file, default config.json. You can load multiple config files and combine it with command line options.

Common Issues

HUGE PAGES unavailable

• Run webchain-miner as Administrator.
• webchain-miner automatically enables SeLockMemoryPrivilege for current user, but reboot or sign out still required. Manual instruction.

Other information

• No HTTP support, only stratum protocol support.
• No TLS support.
• Default donation 5% (5 minutes in 100 minutes) can be reduced to 0% via command line option --donate-level.

Maximum performance checklist

• Idle operating system.
• Do not exceed optimal thread count.
• Try setup optimal cpu affinity.
• Enable fast memory (Large/Huge pages).
