# CNRig
[](https://github.com/cnrig/cnrig/releases)
[](https://github.com/cnrig/cnrig/releases)
[](https://github.com/cnrig/cnrig/blob/master/LICENSE)
CNRig is a high performance CryptoNight CPU miner for Linux.
Based on the formidable [XMRig](https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig), its distinguishing features are automatic updates and compatibility with old distributions.

## Features
* Automatic updates.
* Binary compatible with many Linux distributions.
* High performance.
* Support for backup (failover) mining server.
* CryptoNight-Lite support for AEON.
* CryptoNight-Heavy support for SUMO.
* Smart automatic [CPU configuration](https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/wiki/Threads).
* Nicehash support
* It's open source software.
## Download
* Binary releases: https://github.com/cnrig/cnrig/releases
* Git tree: https://github.com/cnrig/cnrig.git
* Clone with `git clone https://github.com/cnrig/cnrig.git`
```
wget -O cnrig https://github.com/cnrig/cnrig/releases/download/v0.1.5-release/cnrig-0.1.5-linux-x86_64
chmod +x cnrig
./cnrig
```
## Usage
Use [config.xmrig.com](https://config.xmrig.com/xmrig) to generate, edit or share configurations.
### Options
```
-a, --algo=ALGO cryptonight (default), cryptonight-lite or cryptonight-heavy
-o, --url=URL URL of mining server
-O, --userpass=U:P username:password pair for mining server
-u, --user=USERNAME username for mining server
-p, --pass=PASSWORD password for mining server
-t, --threads=N number of miner threads
-v, --av=N algorithm variation, 0 auto select
-k, --keepalive send keepalived for prevent timeout (need pool support)
-r, --retries=N number of times to retry before switch to backup server (default: 5)
-R, --retry-pause=N time to pause between retries (default: 5)
--cpu-affinity set process affinity to CPU core(s), mask 0x3 for cores 0 and 1
--cpu-priority set process priority (0 idle, 2 normal to 5 highest)
--no-huge-pages disable huge pages support
--no-color disable colored output
--no-auto-update disable automatic updates
--variant algorithm PoW variant
--donate-level=N donate level, default 5% (5 minutes in 100 minutes)
--user-agent set custom user-agent string for pool
-B, --background run the miner in the background
-c, --config=FILE load a JSON-format configuration file
-l, --log-file=FILE log all output to a file
-S, --syslog use system log for output messages
--max-cpu-usage=N maximum CPU usage for automatic threads mode (default 75)
--safe safe adjust threads and av settings for current CPU
--nicehash enable nicehash/xmrig-proxy support
--print-time=N print hashrate report every N seconds
--api-port=N port for the miner API
--api-access-token=T access token for API
--api-worker-id=ID custom worker-id for API
-h, --help display this help and exit
-V, --version output version information and exit
```
Also you can use configuration via config file, default **config.json**. You can load multiple config files and combine it with command line options.
## Algorithm variations
* `--av=1` For CPUs with hardware AES.
* `--av=2` Lower power mode (double hash) of `1`.
* `--av=3` Software AES implementation.
* `--av=4` Lower power mode (double hash) of `3`.
## Compatibility
CNRig is compiled 100% statically and should work on a wide variety of Linux distributions, It has been tested with:
| Distro | Kernel | Compatible |
| ---------------- | ----------:|:------------:|
| Ubuntu 18.04 | 4.15 | Yes |
| Ubuntu 10.04 | 2.6.32 | Yes |
| CentOS 6 | 2.6.32 | Yes |
| CentOS 5 | 2.6.18 | Yes |
## Common Issues
## Other information
* No HTTP support, only stratum protocol support.
* No TLS support.
* Default donation 5% (5 minutes in 100 minutes) can be reduced to 1% via command line option `--donate-level`.
### CPU mining performance
* **Intel i7-7700** - 307 H/s (4 threads)
* **AMD Ryzen 7 1700X** - 560 H/s (8 threads)
Please note performance is highly dependent on system load. The numbers above are obtained on an idle system. Tasks heavily using a processor cache, such as video playback, can greatly degrade hashrate. Optimal number of threads depends on the size of the L3 cache of a processor, 1 thread requires 2 MB of cache.
### Maximum performance checklist
* Idle operating system.
* Do not exceed optimal thread count.
* Use modern CPUs with AES-NI instruction set.
* Try setup optimal cpu affinity.
* Enable fast memory (Large/Huge pages).
