the pool kernels get their remaining edge, and what has been tried, is
written up in [issue #27](https://git.lair.cafe/quantus/miner/issues/27).
Since v4.0.2-lair.2 the binary carries two kernels. The default (`unrolled`)
is fastest on the RTX 5090 and 3060; RTX 40-series cards measure 1.7% better
on the rolled-loop one, selected with `MINER_CUDA_KERNEL=loop` in the
environment (it reports as kernel `cuda-loop` on the metrics). Both are
bit-exact with the CPU reference; try each with `quantus-bench` on your card.
**Binaries** are on the [releases page](https://git.lair.cafe/quantus/miner/releases):
one Linux x86_64 `quantus-miner` carrying cubins for sm_86 (RTX 30), sm_89
(RTX 40) and sm_120 (RTX 50) plus PTX for anything newer, built on Fedora 43
