Subject: Re: Parallella: scrypt
Alexander,
As you told me, I'm posting a copy of the mail that I sent you:
I just finished the implementation of Scrypt format. Now I have some
questions:
The SSE implementation have a really poor performance on my i5-3570K only
30 c/s and it's really worst in Parallella where the ref implementation
only gets 0.7, I have attached the scrypt_fmt.c (I'm using the same code
from escrypt that you attached in you first mail).
I'm working on my own git repo(https://github.com/LordRafa/jonh1.8.0),
should I move to another one?
Also I need to know the if this are the targets for my gsoc project:
For the first half of the summer:
First, implement scrypt in host mode.
Second, experiment with scrypt time-memory tradeoff.
Third, move it to epiphany.
For the second half of the summer(early August or maybe before?) :
Fourth, implement epiphany based Litecoin mining.
Fifth, implement descrypt on Parallella.
in oder to fix the gsoc project description.
Furthermore I need to know the next task, yesterday you told me about
interleaving and opencl, may you tell me more about those tasks? is it
time-memory tradeoff related?
My apologies, I'm a little bit lost but now that I finished my degree I can
work on this project the whole day.
Best regards,
Rafa.
