How to improve Steem mining performance

You can get ~10% performance improvements if you recompile fc with libgmp support, using following instruction.

  1. Install libgmp (requires only for compilation) using command: sudo apt-get install libgmp-dev
  2. Make change to fc library described in this commit
  3. Reconfigure and recompile Steem as usual (cmake . & make)
  4. Enjoy!

Please post here how much performance boost you get.

Feel free to share the link to this page. At this page I will publish updates and future optimizations if any.

PS: For some non-modern systems you can get additional performance improvements by using compiler optimization options described in this commit
