Throwing 4 CPUs at it for a total of 600kh/s and the estimate is 14 coins/day

that's about 0.012 BTC / day for current price.

Still more profitable than mining BTC or LTC, right? Cool

Well not really, the 4 CPUS (different computers) need around 300W/hr for that, and mining LTC is the same 300W for 640kh/s and that gives me 1.3 LTC/day which is about 4x as profitable.

Which CPUs are you using? The most I have been able to get is 10kh/s per CPU, for a total of 40kh/s for all four.

I'm guessing you shouldn't do CPU mining and instead try and figure out how to do GPU mining unless you can only CPU mine with Yacs, in which case how is anyone else making a profit. I just mine the coins most profitable for me:)... best of luck!

Actually, the real YAC profitability from CoinChoose drops from 457.26% to 90%, since block reward now is around 20, not 100 anymore.
457.26 % / 5 = 91.452%

Would you mind posting the hash rate you got on each of these processors?
