I'm trying to gauge how much better my results would be if I was using a GPU rather than an old CPU. I'm assuming this old Acer I'm using very slow generating 270 Kkey/s. It takes a long time to generate relatively short prefixes.
Here's an example:
When I'm trying for a case sensitive prefix of 1Bitcoin it would take ~25 years to reach 50%.
How many Kkey/s (or Mkeys/s) are you getting on your CPU or GPU?
You can try vanitygen64 if you have 64 bit system. It should be faster (I suppose?).
Haha I forgot to mention that i'm using vanitygen64. So it looks like I've got a very slow machine compared to others.
~4.5 hours with ~36Mkey/s on one 970 GTX.
Wow lol. I'm just Going to not bother using this computer anymore hahaha. That's impressive!
