Release v15.2.1 of BzMiner. All feedback is welcome ;)

-- What's in this release (v15.2.1)

  • Significant Ergo efficiency improvement (Nvidia)
  • Minor improvement to Nexa hashrate (Nvidia)
  • Significant hashrate/efficiency improvement to: ergo + radiant
  • Significant hashrate/efficiency improvement to: ergo + kaspa
  • Improved zil stability when switching OC's
  • Improved overall dual+ mining stability
  • Added pool hr percentage relative to miner hr
  • Fixed Nexa extranonce for some pools
  • Added option zil_retain_hashrate to keep last zil hashrate showing in miner
  • Added option cache_dag for ergo to precalculate the next ergo dag
  • Reduced ergo + rxd/kaspa startup time
  • Improved dual mining auto intensity feature

NOTE: dual rxd will not work in this release, a fix for this will be released shortly

NOTE: Currently the improved Ironfish hashrate is not supported while solo mining. This will be addressed in an upcoming update

NOTE: Nexa development is continued joint effort with Lolliedieb from lolMiner

NOTE: Nvidia driver 530 and higher has a bug that reports wrong clock frequencies. oc's should still be applied correctly

NOTE: Some people have been having issues with the latest version of hive running BzMiner. If you experience BzMiner freezing when it starts, and your on the latest hive update, currently the only fix is to roll back to a previous Hive version (reported version working is 06.219 - Kernel 5.10#110). Currently looking into this
