Forum rules
Anything about Riecoin mining goes here! A type of topic are threads about a CPU type. Only post your optimal parameters or show your machine in such topic and create a new one if there is no topic about your CPU, following the same scheme as the current ones. Otherwise you can also discuss about things like the profitability in general or other mining related subjects.
Different CPUs models should be discussed on the same topic if they are of the same architecture, have the same number of cores, and the same cache sizes, for example the 2700X and 3700X will have different topics, while the 3770K and the 3770 should be discussed on the same topic.
Do not talk about the mining software (suggestions, bug reports,...), go to the rieMiner's topic for this.
No technical support here as well, go to the Help subforum.
Discussions about current Riecoin mining pools must go to the Pools subforum.

I also tried the Orange Pi 2W 1 gb memory version. Although rieMiner runs ok, the swap file is needed, resulting in about a 20% performance penalty.

I installed Arch Linux on the 1 gb Opi 2W and was able to run without using the swap file. Still about the same performance, 10% to 20% slower than 2 gb model. So I conclude more memory is definitely better.
