BitShares PTS (formerly ProtoShares) Mandatory Upgrade & Snapshot Announcement

[FreeTrade]

I have enough RAM.

Hmmm - not sure, maybe not enough of it addressable in a single process. Try increasing it gradually and see the maximum number you can hit.

Using 64bit linux kernel and 64bit userland you can adress up to 256TiB in single process.
For me client runs fine on 24 core linux machine with 64G ram.

PS will you accept fixes to build system for linux?

This. And also, what OS are you running ?

I'm just curious, I keep seeing this in the log file. Is the miner going round and round itself?

testHash ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
Hash Target 000fff0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Its appearing fairly often.

Miner works about half an hour. As a result I don't see even orphaned blocks. Difficulty is low. Maybe, is new algo too hard for modern cpu?

Is there anything wrong with this? I mean,it says ""generate" : false,".

I'm mining on windows x86 with dual core cpu.

I have this worry with my FX 8350, set an alarm to get up and start this on its release and still waiting for a block lol....

This is some insignificant bug. To make sure that the miner works you can check cpu load for PTS wallet process in Task Manager.

Thanks, best to address those to ByteMaster at Invictus.

This means a nonce has been tested and turned up no collisions. Sometimes a nonce will turn up more than 1 collisions and the best one will be used, sometimes there are none, and we have to assign a value to that outcome which is fffffff....

But look here, we need possible maximal hashing power in one instance miner for effective catching blocks. I think it is better to mine with two instances configured as 3 and 1 processes than 2 and 2 (for 4-core cpu).

just use 64bit linux =D an you can run any number of threads unless they fill all your ram. and even more if you have memory deduplication

I am offering an up-to 55 PTS bounty to the person who compiles me a Windows x64 version with MAX_NONCE as 1<<22 instead of 1<<26. I will run it concurrently with the traditional version (3 threads each).

Bounty: 15 for first block, 20 for second, 12.5 for third, 7.5 for fourth mined with the new version.

(Also, if someone would compile me one with 1<<18, that would be great too, since it would fit into my 3MB cache. Same bounty conditions.)


Alternatively, someone compile something like mikealh's primecoin which allow one to set miner parameters.

No luck in mining so far.  Would any nice folks out there who have mined something like to make the first non-code base transaction?  I'll send you a picture of some pizza, or my dvd collection.

Only 400 blocks have been mined. Most miners on here (including me)  have 0 balance.

I will be happy if I manage to get a block overnight.

[tdlokesh]

I have started the mining and my hashing is 2.02 but the generate value is still false.Am i still Mining ??

FreeTrade, please don't make any changes in client, because the present client has a botnet-resistant and IT Administrator resistant (this resistant is light but useful for other people)
