Which monero CPU miner are you using? Does it support AVX?

xmrig on Linux

AVX can be added as a compiler option but see here > https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/issues/1124

Thank yoi, I remember having used xmrig on windows

Not worth it since they forked…I was mining it on AMD. Ever since they changed to RandomX it’s just not worth it.

I believe you are burning more $ on electricity, then it mines for you monero.
Another thought, if your CPU load is near 100% (because of the miner) you might loose as well Storj shares because of that.
