Enabling large page support on Windows

  Lare pages need a properly set up OS. It can be difficult if you are not used to systems administation,

  but the performace results are worth the trouble - you will get around 20% boost. Slow memory mode is

  meant as a backup, you won't get stellar results there. If you are running into trouble, especially

  on Windows, please read the common issues in the README.

 By default we will try to allocate large pages.

 This means you need to "Run As Administrator" on Windows.

 You need to edit your system's group policies to enable locking large pages. Here are the steps from MSDN

1. On the Start menu, click Run. In the Open box, type gpedit.msc. <--- secpol.msc 실행

2. On the Local Group Policy Editor console, expand Computer Configuration, and then expand Windows Settings.

3. Expand Security Settings, and then expand Local Policies.

4. Select the User Rights Assignment(사용자 권한 할당) folder.

5. The policies will be displayed in the details pane.

6. In the pane, double-click Lock pages in memory(메모리 페이지 잠금).

7. In the Local Security Setting – Lock pages in memory dialog box, click Add User or Group.

8. In the Select Users, Service Accounts, or Groups dialog box, add an account that you will run the miner on

9. Reboot for change to take effect.
