Several people request how to extract the primes in blocks, so I have updated the 2nd post with tutorial.

It must have been asked before, but so many pages.. so here goes; how would I (solo)mine this? Can I just use cgminer?
click help -> debug window. then on the console tab, type 'setgenerate true'. it wont tell you you are mining, but if you check your process explorer, you will see all of your cores maxed. Was confused, but now I see this. I also see the CPU is maxed, so I'm mining now? Only way to know is find a block, righht? Hmm.. You can run "getmininginfo" or "getprimespersec" in the console (Help>Debug Console). So I am getting "7 primes per sec", which sounds pretty awful. Get block in...

Though I would share the primecoind runs and builds fine on Mac.

Those primes are large, not astronomically large as Mersenne primes of course, but there is no such thing as a 'prime table' that you can look it up at this scale, as primes are abundant.
Yes, but clearly it takes less computing power to 'look up' a prime than to use the client software to create it then to check if it is part of a chain. If you have created a client that can manufacture primes then it is easy to use the client to manufacture them and then store them in a database for analysis. I am pretty sure that there is such a thing as a 'prime table'. It is a database of known primes. Ok. Thinking about it there probably isn't a complete database of all known primes but that doesn't mean that there isn't a weakness in your pow scheme. Is your client software the most efficient way of computing these primes and prime chains and verifying them or can a more efficient mathematical way be produced? I bet you can't show me a mathematical proof of this. Maybe you can?? Whereas the SHA 256 hashing function used in bitcoin has undergone a pretty thorough mathematical analysis by some very clever people over the years. I'm just being the devil's advocate but these questions need to be asked.

Is there a time frame on making a "Open Source JavaScript Client-Side Primecoin (v0.3+) Wallet Generator"?

unlimited, i.e. it uses all cores. Use 2 to use 2 cores.
