[XPM] The Unofficial Primecoin Overview Thread (all information in one place!)

[mechs]

Just added links to two optimized hacked versions of jhPrimemienr by cabin and mumu.

mechs: is the 0.34beta version of jhprimeminer now as fast as HP8 now that jhprimeminer has those algorithm changes?

I would say yes, though the mumus version would seem to be faster than HP8 or v0.34

[colinistheman]

The mumus version gives me 29000 PPS on ONE of my cpus alone. That is greater than the total of all 4 of my CPUs with HP8. Is this correct??

There is now a fixed official v0.35 out, though I will stick with mumus for now.  PPS is not everything and mumus takes a while to experiment and find the best settings for your cpu.  The value of the shares produces is the most important thing, not the quantity.

Amazing, makes me realize how many xpm threads i was keeping up with. Thanks

PPS does not reflect your ability to find a block. At all.
Thus, the huge increase in pps sounds a tad fishy.

And anyway, it increased for everyone in the pool.
You went x10, but all your co-miners too, so...

Amazing work! Thanks!

[mechs]

Glad to help!

How many coins reward is it for finding a primecoin block currently?

This is a good point. I also think it is fishy that it shows 10x the PPS. In fact, the actual payout to me in the pool stayed the same, despite the hugely increased PPS & shares. It doesn't seem to really have boosted my results. I don't understand how I can have more shares and pps and not more XPM payout though... What's going on here?

I am earning xpm much faster though in ypool with mumus.  Better than the official build

yeah mumus is the best for me on ypool too

jhPrimeminer (mumus' high performance version 3.0) <---optimized to auto-adjust to best settings and has GMP libs (I use this version but it an unofficial hack. Beware!)
https://www.dropbox.com/s/tauj21tvm06xk7y/jhPrimeminer-GMP-v3.zip (x64 windows executable)

Is there a 32 bit version of jhPrimeminer (mumus' high performance version 3.0)?

Or source code?

[mechs]

Some updates:
jhPrimeminer updated to v.035 (original had bug)
Added another GPU Miner thread (a working alpha, though not working well!)
A second blockchain explorer
Updated fees on the exchanges
XPM Prices crashing, world ending!

This was needed! Good work! Maybe some editing and use of B, colors and bigger fonts would help and make it easier to read

I'll work on that!

Added link to new version 4 of jhPrimeminer (about 25% faster) and a couple new threads of interest

Yeah sure do, some better formating and such, will make it much more interesting.

I will introduce this post to Chinese XPM fans.
Great work!
