Thanks Mikael, I read that it takes a 30 fold increase in processing power to increase difficulty by 1 . . . if so difficult to imagine difficultly ever climbing beyond 12 or 13.
999/(13*13) = 5.9 per block
i thing there are about 1000x optimization left in the code....at least so . . . 999/(15*15) = 4.44 per block I think diff at 12 is the time GPUminer approach ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Experimenting with sievepercentage and found 100% caused a segfault.

sievepercentage=1 sievesize=1000000
with sievepercentage=1, I got biggest PPS and more chainspermin. Is it good?
Good question.. can anyone attest to this?

How much time it takes to found a block? I just using this primecoin-hp on my i7 with the mining speed about 4000-5000 pps for couple of days and still nothing... Is it how it should be?

I've been consistently finding blocks once per day with my Core 2 Quad 9400 OC'ed to 3.5GHz on the second windows client. My pps is usually around 2500, so I'm either very lucky or something is wrong on your end.

I can attest to you being lucky. I've been running a constant ~2700 PPS for almost 48 hours and haven't found squat. Running Sieve% 10, SieveSize 1000000

/primecoin-hp/src# primecoind stop error: incorrect rpcuser or rpcpassword (authorization failed)
Your primecoin daemon was started with a different password in the config file. Just kill it off by typing: Same thing over, and over again. I have killed it, and hes coming back.

If you followed Mikaelh's build instructions then you have a script running that restarts primecoind when you kill it. You need to kill the run-primecoin script first then primecoind.

My pps went down after I changed the sievesize from 1M to 2M. Should I be worried, or is this "normal"?
it's normal ! Question. Any way to change sieve % in Debug console (Windows QT)?

It's looking like mining is getting significantly less profitable without a gpu miner.
says the guy with 400-500k pps. lulz It's not free to run that many pps. This morning it was looking like I might not beat my costs by that much. I know how it looks though ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Not likely... i have found many blocks, but less then one a day for the last 4 days. it is just getting that much more difficult! edit: ( I turn the rigs down to about 7-8k during the heat of the day )

-hp6 released!
[...] This release attempts to fix the random crash while mining. I'm not sure if it's actually fixed because I have heard both positive and negative reports. The crash is more likely with high number of cores. 16 and 32 core machines are suffering the most. [...]
As far as as I can say it runs better, but I've had one crash on Windows 7 64-Bit (Phenom 2 X4 955 -> 4 cores): Title: MinGW Runtime Assertion Assertion failed! Program: C:\Progam Files\primecoin-0.1.1-hp6-win64\primecoin-qt.exe File: src/checkqueue.h, Line 141
Expression: pqueue -> nTotal == pqueue -> nIdle
I can add a screenshot, but I thought text that can be searched for by other users might be needful ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
