Did you have time to look into the reason of the new wallet being so heavy on RAM usage (see my previous post)? It smells like some kind of accidental/unintended change (bug or unntended usage of some library, or linking issue), as I believe no real intended code change or added feature (except really super-major one) could bring to such huge increase of resource usage.
Not that this is a huge problem, but as a quality programmer (which I am sure you are), I think you should be interested in optimizing resource usage, or at least not letting a typo in the code to blow up the resource usage 2-3 times. I am programmer myself, and such increase is a red flag for me, calling for code review.
I haven't had too much ram usage with the CV2 wallet, I wouldn't really call myself a quality programmer. My experience is purely from trial an error since I became part of Bitcointalk so I have about a year and a half of coding experience and same amount using Linux. I found the error, I missed adding in bool mintablecoins in miner.cpp, it should be line 545: while (vNodes.empty() || IsInitialBlockDownload() || !pwallet->MintableCoins()) I committed it to the source, it should fix the issue. Thanks for your work, Crestington. You are modest, but I indeed think you are quality programmer, even if you are not expert in programming yet: quality-oriented person (the most important thing) + programming skills will make quality programmer over time. Back to the topic - your change does not fix the memory issue. However I have done some testing which should be helpful: Here are my findings: 1. the huge increase of memory usage happens even if there is no blockchain downloaded yet (I deleted all files in "Roaming" dir, restarted wallet, but the RAM usage is still big). So this issue is not related to blockchain memory usage. 2. Important: The bug increase in memory happens ONLY in "Default" theme!!! All other themes have the same memory usage as old wallet. 3. I went further and deleted "black.jpg" in "Default" folder. After restarting of teh wallet, the memory size was small (about 1xx MB). Pit back the "black.jpg", restarted wallet, and the memory size was hige (4xx MB)!! So somehow the usage of this "black.jpg" which is just 2 MB by itself, brings to the program RAM usage increse of about 250-300 MB! I hope those findings would help to identify the issue... You mention that you deleted the files in the roaming folder which says that you are using Windows. That small change for "bool mintable Coins" means it checks for Coins that are able to be minted, otherwise it is using ram needlessly. I have not compiled the Windows binary yet, the change exists in the main sourcecode. I have heard of a similar issue before in HyperStake where some people were mentioning they were getting an increased amount of orphans with some theme's over others. This is interesting, try just resizing the image and see how it affects the CPU load, you can go for 640 X 480 and that would make the image about 30 kb. I do think about efficiency and CPU load which is why the CV2 Blockchain was made with 2 minute Blocktimes and slightly restrictive fees so that it's base growth is about 150mb a year. POS only is actually even more efficient than POW for the reason that you solo mining it so it isn't adding the extra data to the Blockchain when pools are splitting up shares of Blocks mined. Thank you for pointing this out, I might not have noticed it otherwise. Do you have an address? and I'll send you some Coins for your help  |

i like the idea of decentralized exchanges because i made a lot bad experience with centralized ones. the question is, if all that works like you are planning. currently, decentralized services in common have a latency time to execute actions which could be a problem for exchanges.
Lets not get ahead of ourselves here this is an exchange in similar fashion to BTC-E or Cryptsy that runs on a server written in PHP, MYSQL that a newbie can setup in a matter of hours it will have step by step video instructions for succesful setup. since there will many of them setup for each coin by community spreading the risk across many many exchanges. There will be first mover advantages gaining user trust. Marinecoin DEV http://marinecoin.orgSo you definition of decentralized exchange you are using here is 'multiple users running their own centralized exchanges'? Maybe that was clear to others in the addition of 'peer server side' but didn't make sense to me. So how far along are you with all of this? I don't think you can get away completely from centralization. |

Hey so are you guys aware that TruckCoin was cloned from X-Coin and that when the developer cloned X-Coin that they search and replaced "XC" with "TRK" so there are many instances in the HyperStake code where TRK still exists.
Yeah, I was aware of that  Press has slowly culled them, it was a lot more early on. We still occasionally conflict on p2p and rpc ports too. The development of the two coins has diverged significantly. I'm in to both, though at current my highest holding in any coins is GMC, followed very closely by HyperStake. I had a fair stash of TEK, but I managed to kill my backup drive AND my main drive. Might be able to recover that, might not. I never had a lot of TRK, which was also lost in that debacle. Also HBN. Y'all take a lesson from this. I failed to practice what I preach, a mistake I won't make again. Make regular backups of your wallet.dat file, and make 'em to CD or other permanent media. In USD terms, I probably lost about 600 dollars in this debacle. Totally my fault, too. Well, I didn't break the drives, that was my damn cats in the case of the backup, and simple mechanical failure due to age and abuse on the other one. But if I'd had proper backups, I'd have lost time and that's all. Thought I'd mention it since I follow the HYP code quite a bit, I've pulled a lot of it for PayCon. I generally don't have a ton of cash but appreciate being able to adapt features as I learn and play with code so I even paid presstab a couple times for some help and give credit where I can. |

Paycoin has now worth BTC 0.00029175 (USD 0.065909). Very great opertunity for buy.  nah, it's still too high. wasn't our plan to get in cheap?  It's still got a 60% drop or more. Should not forget that there are some major exploits in the code as well, hell you could just put you clock ahead a couple hours and Stake as soon as Coins hit your wallet. |

Instead of making a hundred threads asking one question each, how about using google and testing it out.

Must have happened during that first Men at Work North American Tour then.
I admit, he's my dad And my Tinfoil Hat remains shiny and untarnished.... Well I said before that releasing of private information only tells the truth, if you have nothing to hide then it doesn't matter if people release your information and most people wouldn't go out of their way to do it unless they have some kind of vendetta against you. What can I say? I'm awesome |

Actually I'm from Canada but spent 4.5 years working and backpacking around Australia and New Zealand This photo is from the bungee jump at Lake Taupo in new Zealand.  I went to Las Vegas last November too, did 10 days for about 1500 USD including flights, accommodation, shows and food. I got a bit drunk, got spanked by a nurse and met Dr. Evil Don't do it, it really hurt and she left a welt.   |

He's creating a new coin! Biggest shitcoin ever! It was a bit of a funny story, I went canyoning with a few people and didn't have a change of clothes and that was all they had. I thought it was hilarious so just rolled with it  |

@jahvinci i have now 1 active connection without doing something^^ but sync really really slow^^ i have now 419720 from 424720 blocks?
You should have way more than one, did you download the final fix? i downloaded it now second time still 0 active connection and not sync.. it looks like a get some times a day 1 active connection and found some blocks.. but never sync.. Have you tried switching users yet? Edit: I've installed the qt on 5(!) different computers in the past few days and they all run fine have atm no time for that^^ i will try later with my laptop edit: new user on pc change nothing.. i will try later on laptop used same files on the laptop and get 4 active connections and im staking now  dont know why on pc it dont want... Perhaps it has something to do with firewall settings? i dont think so the old wallet worked fine without problem.. Create a maryjanecoin.conf file, it will help you connect. Go to Control Panel
In the Search box, type Folder
Click "Folder Options"
Click the tab that says View
Make sure there is no check in the box for "Hide file extensions for known file types" (de-select this option and click OK)
Exit Control Panel
On Windows 8, right-click the start button and select "Run"
(for Windows 7, left-click the start button and type "run" into "Search Programs and Files", then click Run at the top of the list)
In "Run", type %appdata% and press Enter
You should see the folder located at Appdata/Roaming
Open the MaryJaneCoin folder
Right-click and Create New File - create a new Text document
Open the document with Notepad
Paste the following into the file: (but put a username and password instead of "username" and "password)
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=*username*
rpcpassword=*password*
rpcport=9420
port=8420
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
addnode=194.135.90.5
addnode=194.135.90.81
addnode=107.170.179.27
Save the file.
Re-name the document maryjanecoin.conf (filetype .conf, not .txt)
Restart your MaryJaneCoin wallet.
addnode=107.170.179.27 is a node I've put up and on the highest chain. |

what REALLY bothered me about Blocknet is Dan worked on it offline and had it 75% done
then he came here and asked us all for about $950,000 usd at the time value wise in Bitcoin (to finish the 25% etc)
so you want to talk about what he needs to do the work or live on ? LOL
I thought that was simply obscene.. asking us guys here after all these coins already posted for a MILLION dollars ?!
wow he had some nerve !
come on bud===> can't we [ANN]~*~Spoetnik~*~coin already and whip up some real wild monkey business ? ;-) haaaa A coin is a lot of work to start and manage, I would contribute but I would rather him a part of PayCon |

Lambo's are expensive, But really, if you think about the average salary and what is "worth" the time and effort then I would estimate about 2k a month per person to work fulltime. 1 MILLION dollars, you could have 10 developers working fulltime for 2 years. |

Then the trolls can buy in, it's what our plan always was. Paycoin will to the moon. It's just a matte of tiem. MrCEOPIG  AHA! The conspiracy deepens. Homero's rocket and Suchmoon's coffee mug were clearly designed by the same person:  Suchmoon is a hansome man, I am jealous of his godly decentralized beard. If you guys ever had the inclination to dox me, I posted pictures of myself on Bitcointalk about a year ago. They are still there if you look, some nice gems there but I just never mention it and no one really cares enough  |

How can I begin to earn coins POS ?
You need Coins to earn Coins through Proof of Stake. |
