I'll put up one Bitcoin in bounty for a CPU-miner (standalone) that will run on both windows and linux and outperform the built-in miner.
Recompile the existing one with some more optimization flags or with the ICC compiler.  |

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

How do you know if your block that you mined is orphaned or not?

Problem is it would be hard to compare, I plan on getting two identical machines, running them side-by-side, and every 2 minutes asking each for their hashrate, then averaging it over a 6-hour period.
The primespersec measure is for fun only, it does not necessarily reflect true mining performance. The only accurate measure is block rate, that is, given a fixed difficulty how fast can you generate blocks. To measure this one can use a lower difficulty than the network difficulty. |

Recompile the existing one with some more optimization flags or with the ICC compiler. Existing one as in the one built into the primecoin wallet? I haven't dug into the source code yet, but I'm interested in the support for shares and such.  |

What port is primecoin running on? I need to verify that some active ports I've discovered are just the primecoin running...

I've found only 5 blocks for 24 hours: i5 2500K at 100% CPU Load - 2 blocks, i3 2100 at 75% CPU Load - 3 blocks. Luck don't correlate with computation power.

Did you find anything out of the ordinary with the way Primecoin was running? |

"There are a few who seek primes just for the money. There are prizes for the first prover ten-million digit prime ($100000), the first hundred-million digit prime ($150000), and the first billion digit prime ($250000)."

Did you find anything out of the ordinary with the way Primecoin was running? I found some uncommonly opened ports opened. I'm not a security guru, so I don't know what to make of it. It's possible they were open before, as I don't do port scans of my machines all that often. |

primecoin is not designed to find the largest prime (millions of digits long). It will not attempt to look for the ones listed in that competition. |
