Not sure if this has been asked, but is there inherent value in the primes themselves? Can we extract them and sell them?
The primes...no. The Cunningham chains, well there is certainly some notoriety for finding new ones but I don't think anyone would pay for them? |

That build is tailored for your CPU generation. It should work well. |

Hey guys, I am getting ~300 pps and been mining for hours. Still no XPMs. Is this normal? (and yes I've read the threads!)
Yes. If you're paranoid you can reload the blockchain. |

Thank you. Yes, my build is compliant. |

Maybe you meant to quote willphase's post.
Thanks, fixed. |

Anyone know of an optimized linux build? I think mine is broken  Just build it yourself. Building on linux is seriously like 4-5 lines. |

just a warning, when I tried compiling on VS2012 with optimizations, I found that my serialization code was off kilt, and run into all sorts of issues...
if you're playing with the reference client, it might be worth just trying to optimize prime.c (via CFLAGS override in Makefile) since that's where all the logic for calculations are - and you won't risk messing with any of the other important network code.

How on earth are you compiling this on VS2012? Do you have any project files you could share? |

Hey bro! and to you other guys.. somebody on cryptsy was questioning my use of your binaries.. out of curiosity and paranoia lol how many other people are using this..? anybody want to examine it.. i'm willing to take the gamble lol.. anybody found a block yet?
You really should sandbox in a VM first to check each binary release. |

Heh... that's a new development. It also appears to be broken again, not pulling in new blocks as they come. Last time that was a UPNP problem.
Zalfrin, may I ask what was broken? I am working on some optimizations right now and would like to avoid the same (I'm assuming uPnP) problem. I'm about to hang it up for the night but if I find anything that looks promising tomorrow, I'll let you know. I prefer to keep changes public on the board rather than on IRC like we have been doing. |

Updatehttps://www.dropbox.com/s/vfyr1tfd3qb2dxn/primecoin0710.zipThis is a fresh pull using -O3 and mtune=corei7-avx compiling options. In other words, it is optimized for AVX instruction processors (Core i3, i5, and i7) but will run on any hardware. XPM: AR2BpBnitqXudN67Ncuc9FfYVT8u9jNe7a if you feel inclined. This is on my i5-2400:  I was getting about 120 PPS earlier today, so a huge improvement. I need a virus check on these files please. 3..2...1...virus check complete  Honestly, I always recommend sandboxing 3rd-party builds, and that holds true for my own work. |

EDIT:
running openssl ./config and make via mingw console seems to work fine. Not sure what the deal is with running via the .bat under windows command prompt instead...
I commented out the openssl compile from the .sh and am now continuing with the rest of the process.
The sed commands are throwing a permission denied error, but look to have successfully updated what they were supposed to anyways.
Thanks for this tip, I had to do the same. do you guys happen to have Perl installed? To debug it helps to start the batch files from the command line (pause on error does not always work) I had perl but I'm not sure if I had restarted (this is a number-crunching workstation) since adding it to the path. Retrying from scratch now. |

This early in the game there is a lot of luck involved. My Core 2 Duo laptop has found 6 blocks in about 20 hours, while my i5-3570K has found one.
