[XPM] [ANN] Primecoin High Performance | HP14 released!

[maco]

Honestly I remember seeing your post twice on this thread, at most. I could be wrong but I think it's a good idea to keep on track with XPM news on the go.

I think it might have been from my signature as I never posted on this thread before until today. It might have been the main thread of the first official release (july 7th). I am working on the news side of things, so currently its only threads/reddit on the go, however, incorporating more resources on the fly.

Simmer down TheSwede75...

I've always loved the term " simmer down " . Lol

yeah, me too. It's a soothing/relaxing and non-threatening/defensive term. Crisp and clear.

[1] why is makefile.unix

and not

makefile.linux-mingw64

used?? ( i am on ubuntu 13.04)


[2] when I use
sudo make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-

i get this error from the source forge hp4

hp3/2/1 apt git clone has been fine

any help appreciated

Code:

sudo make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-

Learn to Google: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MinGW. MinGW is for Windows. You're not running Windows.

On your errors: looks like an encoding issue or a bad download from github. I would suggest re-downloading it from the Sourceforge link that is in this thread (until the Git repo is fixed).

The client seems to crash for me after few minutes of mining

running hp3-win64
on Win 7 x64 I7 930



any ideas?

This is what I got, and only once, only after hours of mining, and never again since restart.

EDIT This was with hp3, I7 2660

Any news on this?  I seem to get this error every few hours on my i7 3930k (Win 7 x64) but not on any of my other machines with various Intel processors.  A simple restart and it goes away, but if I'm not at my computer then I lose mining time until I can get back.  If I had to make a wild guess, it's asserting that the thread pool has nothing but idle threads, but I've not waded through the source to find what the problem is.

[airtreb]

is it possible to run all my 60 computers in my network as one like 1 is a server how?

Completely unrelated Q, do folks know how the primecoind daemon generates it's randomized primes, is this via a random seed generator? Just want to check that my duplicate linux systems aren't trying to find the same blocks .

Good question. I've installed rngd and increased randomness on DigitalOcean instance on someone's advice (buried somewhere deep in these threads). Of course, don't know if it has any effect or not, since nobody measures anything here, it's in Primecoin tradition not to measure on testnet but experiment blindly  The reasoning was not only to increase randomness from your own systems but from everybody else running primecoind on linux.

what is this? so complicated even primecoind i can not manage to run what more on this stuff lol

Anyone mining with Core i7 4770K Haswell?

[cryptrol]

It seems that the git repo is down ? I noticed when trying to pull the latest (hp4) changes .

It seems that the git repo is down ? I noticed when trying to pull the latest (hp4) changes .

I have sent them an e-mail about that. Now we just have to wait.

[jubalix]

ok

I am running on

machine
001 hp4,
002 hp2
003 hp3,

report back later

I saw this same crash on one of my Linux boxes. Backtrace shows the crash happens when the mining threads are creating new blocks for mining. I think it's a bug in the original code that gets triggered more often because my code is running faster.

[Subw]

can anybody make temp repo?
or where can i get latest sources?

[UNOE]

when will github be back online.

I tried doing a manual unpacking, I got as far as building the package but I get lost moving the directors.

They even released official explanation that they did it because of over-usage of their resources. Imagine that.

What is the logic behind Sievesize/Performance?

Is it like Thread-concurency were the more, the better. Until your card can't handle it.
Or it's more complex, and some more powerful CPU can benefit from a lower value?
