⚡️ ESPminer Optimizer

Tweak your ESPminer for max hashrate, minimum watts, and thermally clean operation - automagically. Built for the modern sovereign miner, optimized for freedom.

“Don’t trust. Verify. Solo-mine. Then autotune.” - Satoshi, probably

🛠 What Is This?

A CLI-based tuner that runs multi-objective optimization on your ESPminer. It finds the best balance of:

• 🧠 Hashrate (TH/s)
• 🔌 Efficiency (J/TH)
• 🌡 Thermal Constraints

All in real-time using Optuna and your device’s REST API.

🚀 Features

• 🎛 Optimizes frequency & core voltage
• 🧪 Runs real-time stats collection from the ESPminer
• 🧯 Aborts trials if temps go too high
• 📈 Logs every trial to a CSV
• 📚 Saves study results to a local SQLite DB
• 🌈 Uses rich for pretty CLI output

☠️ Warnings

• This directly modifies your ESPminer settings and restarts the miner every trial.
• Know your thermal + voltage limits.

To enhance your ESPminer optimization workflow, consider integrating the Optuna Dashboard for real-time visualization and analysis of your optimization runs. This tool provides interactive graphs and detailed trial data, allowing you to monitor the optimization process effectively.

Install

Dependencies:

• Python 3
• A ESPminer running firmware with the /api/system endpoints

Directly install from PyPI espminer-optim via pip:

pip install espminer-optim

⚙️ Development

Clone the repository and install it in editable mode

pip install -e .

🧪 Running the Optimizer

Run the executable after install:

espminer-optim

or run directly via Python runtime python optimize.py if you have cloned the source.

You’ll be prompted for:

• ESPminer IP address
• Frequency & voltage range
• Trial count & duration
• Temperature limits

Then the tuner gets to work - configuring, restarting, collecting stats, and evolving toward greatness. 🙌

Each trial logs:

• Frequency (MHz)
• Core Voltage (mV)
• Avg Hashrate (TH/s)
• Avg Power (W)
• Efficiency (J/TH)
• Objective Score

🛠️ Setting Up Optuna Dashboard

1. Install Optuna Dashboard:

   pip install optuna-dashboard
   

2. Run Your Optimization Script

3. Launch the Dashboard:

   In a separate terminal, start the dashboard:

   optuna-dashboard sqlite:///espminer-optim-db.sqlite3
   

   This will start a local server, typically accessible at http://localhost:8080/.

📊 Features of Optuna Dashboard

• Interactive Visualization: Monitor optimization history, parameter importances, and trial details through dynamic graph.

• Real-Time Updates: Observe the optimization progress as new trials are complete.

• Trial Management: Filter, sort, and inspect individual trials to gain insights into the optimization proces.

For more information and advanced usage, refer to Optuna Dashboard documentation. By incorporating the Optuna Dashboard into your workflow, you can gain deeper insights into your optimization process, leading to more efficient and effective tuning of your ESPminer device.
