  creating a mining pool - easy enough task, creating a whole new decentralised mining technology, well thats an achievement in itself

  sech1: does xmrig support huge pages (or something equivalent to it) on the new arm mac computers?

  macos has no feature to expose hugepages

  but they already use 16k pages so it's already 4x less overhead than x86
• 22:08
  hyc
  there is primitive support for hugepages in the underlying Mach memory manager, but only for x86

  basically, it only exists there because Apple inherited it from Mach. Nothing Apple has built themselves has any support for it.
