RandomX v2 testing
Raw
RandomX_v2_results.md
  • RandomX v1 hash: 4194304 VM instructions + 262144 AES = 4456448 total ops
  • RandomX v2 hash: 6291456 VM instructions + 524288 AES = 6815744 total ops (+52.9%)

RandomX v2 includes the following changes:

  • Program size increased from 256 to 384
  • CFROUND is tweaked to change the rounding 16 times less often
  • Group F and group E register mix is done using 16 AES operations (the extra 262144 AES ops come from this change)
  • Dataset prefetch is 2 iterations ahead instead of 1

RandomX v2 hash is 1.5 times "heavier" than RandomX v1 hash, so hashrate comparison is only for the reference. The real metric is work per Joule (the last two columns).

Results are obtained with randomx-benchmark tool and HWInfo64 to monitor the CPU power consumption. Large pages on, MSR mod on (XMRig was used to turn it on).

Command line for Ryzen AI 9 365:
