25GB Plots (4x compression) with DrPlotter

25GB Plots (4x compression) with DrPlotter

It really works. I tested it, and mind blown. DrNick, inventor of DrPlotter, has managed to pull off 75% compression if you have a 3090 or 4090 GPU to decompress these 4x plots!

His instructions are crystal clear and easy to follow if you want to set up your own test system. If you've ever set up a Chia remote harvester, then this is almost exactly the same.

Plot times on my PCIe Gen3 system with a 4090 is slow at 12 minutes direct to HDD. However, I ordered two more Gen4 systems with 4090s so I can build this out faster.

You cannot plot and harvest/farm on the same system with DrPlotter. His DrSolver program requires a dedicated 3090 or 4090 to do the work of decompression.

This could be what takes me off NoSSD. To be continued!
