[ANN] [QRK] Quark | Core 0.10 upgrade

[idny]

hit 3 blocks in the past 48 hours with the cheapest DigitalOcean vps (5$/month). It's stil profitable but you have to give it time

This. After my rant a few days again i've hit 5 blocks in 24 hours.
Running 2 of the smallest droplets on DO.

Well this is a first for coins, unless I missed some on rare occasions, attempting to steal over with a fake website ran by ~unknown.

The .bat file located on the quarkcoin.net download was funny.

Runing random .bat files from the internet is the way to go

I still hit 6- 7 blocks a day with my 3930k @ 4.6GHz.

Awesome

Any info on the hashespersec?

I'll have a look at implementing hashespersec this weekend. You are welcome to submit a patch if you get it going before then

I'll try my best. I'm trying to look through cloudcoin's code because it has the hashespersec implemented. I'm thinking it should be as simple as changing a few bools from false to true so that will enable hashespersec command. Tried that in bitcoinrpc.cpp and it didn't seem to work.

Question: what file(s) contain the code that does the mining itself?

The mining is done in src/main.cpp in:

void static BitcoinMiner(CWallet *pwallet)

Okay, thanks. What I was imagining was copying the files from cloudcoin to quarkcoind minus the file that does the mining. Reason being is because to my knowledge the way QRK mines is a tad different.

Would copying the files from CDC to QRK minus the mining file enable the hashespersec do you think?

Essentially code similar to this (taken from Cloudcoin) will have to be added to quark's void static BitcoinMiner(CWallet *pwallet) function:

            // Meter hashes/sec
            static int64 nHashCounter;
            if (nHPSTimerStart == 0)
            {
                nHPSTimerStart = GetTimeMillis();
                nHashCounter = 0;
            }
            else
                nHashCounter += nHashesDone;
            if (GetTimeMillis() - nHPSTimerStart > 4000)
            {
                static CCriticalSection cs;
                {
                    LOCK(cs);
                    if (GetTimeMillis() - nHPSTimerStart > 4000)
                    {
                        dHashesPerSec = 1000.0 * nHashCounter / (GetTimeMillis() - nHPSTimerStart);
                        nHPSTimerStart = GetTimeMillis();
                        nHashCounter = 0;
                        static int64 nLogTime;
                        if (GetTime() - nLogTime > 30 * 60)
                        {
                            nLogTime = GetTime();
                            printf("hashmeter %6.0f khash/s\n", dHashesPerSec/1000.0);
                        }
                    }
                }
            }

Github sources updated with hash meter.

gethashespersec and getmininginfo now return hashing rate.

is there a block explorer for QRK?

Not yet. Any big-time miners want to offer a reward for a block explorer?

Sweet! Running at 500k - 600k HPS right now. Time to go get more servers. 

wow I only get 300k - how'd you get 500k?
