I did last week, made a killing. However I'm looking for a different VPS alternative because after the latest diff update this will no longer be profitable.
I'm thinking about switching to EC2. Anyone using them?
i have stopped it, because if the price drops - profit => lost with the long time the blocks need to mature im out! but here are some stats: ----- Mon Jul 22 19:24:42 CEST 2013 ----- ------------ PRIMECOIN ------------ 20 Units - 16 Hours unit ~= 96 $ @30c /H*Unit ---- 180544 PrimesPerSec ---- 29460 5-chains --------------------------------------------- Immature: 12 - Orphans: 0 => ~ 142 XPM Blocks: 78175 - Difficulty: 9.22064346 Node Connections: 269 ---------------------------------------------
so running 20 x cc2.8xlarge (0.25-0.28 each), 16 hours long => 12 blocks (aprox. 142 XPM) with about 9000 pps or 1500 5-chains per cc2.8xlarge its "profitable", BUT you have to wait over a day until the blocks mature, sooo 30 % profit is not enough for taking the risk in my oppinion. .... with mikaelh's script primecoind setgenerate false && primecoind listsinceblock 963d17ba4dc753138078a2f56afb3af9674e2546822badff26837db9a0152106 | grep address | grep -o '"A[^"]*"' | sed s/\"//g | xargs -L1 primecoind dumpprivkey && ./stop-primecoind && sleep 2 && rm ~/.primecoin/wallet.dat && sleep 2 && ./run-primecoind without ./primecoind setgenerate false && ./primecoind listsinceblock 963d17ba4dc753138078a2f56afb3af9674e2546822badff26837db9a0152106 | grep address | grep -o '"A[^"]*"' | sed s/\"//g | xargs -L1 primecoind dumpprivkey && ./primecoind stop && sleep 2 && rm ~/.primecoin/wallet.dat && sleep 2 && ./primecoind -daemon if you don't know what private keys are, don't handle these scripts

I have a microinstance at ec2 that absolutely sucks Try linode or myhosting. They have 8 cores for $20/month. Haven't tried myhosting yet but linodes service seems good although I've only found one block in the last 30 hours on my 8 core at linode

They are just fucking stupid... don't listen to them ! otherwise did anyone figure out if we should put emphasis on chainspermin or pps ? I would think cpm...

actually primecoind is not working with a cc2.8xlarge instance right? at more than 16 cores you do not see increase in the pps measure though the cores are being utilized the top command indicates. so I'm not sure what is going on...
you get the same primespersec with genproclimit=16 or genproclimit=32
even though cpu utilization is different. 1600% vs 3200%

With the latest build sometimes my pps goes down to sub 100 and stops using all cores. Restart fixes it. Not sure what is going on. It is a dual proc machine, 24 threads/12 cores total.

After about 6ish hours of mining, my PPS goes down from ~600 to about ~50.
I have to manually restart the client in order to fix it, but it's annoying having to go through all 50 of my computers.
I'm hoping Sunny's build remains stable.
Edit: It's probably because the network is stuck right now.
