Quarkcoin is good for mining.

Most machines give me 0,1h/m , some 0.2h/m and only the Xeon X series give 2h/m or more (highest 5h/m)
Not sure about AES-NI. I'll try to find that out. Do I have to run the miner with special parameters if I want to take advantage of AES-NI?
In any case, I tested Primecoin/Datacoin VS Memorycoin and at least according to my calculation, XPM/DTC pay better.
Different machines will probably give you different rates of return for different coins. The 2h/m minute machines sound like they are AESNI enabled, so you might find those are more profitable to put on MCC, with the others on XPM. 5h/m =~ $5/day on MCC atm. Sometimes a machine has AES-NI capability but is disable in the BIOS. Other than that, the software should pick it up automatically. Very useful advice, thank you.

Do I need another minerd? I'm testing it on my own comp, and my minerd - ver. 2.3.2 - doesn't recognise the parameter -a quark in the command like this: ./minerd -a quark -o http://prt.mine-pool.net:9472 -O address:pass

There are some optimised "forked" versions of Minerd depending on what system you have. Which are still developed which still support Quark; This is what I'm currently using; http://sourceforge.net/projects/philosopherstone/files/QRK/

Is there an easy way to check whether the processor supports AES?

I always use cpuid in windows or hwinfo. There's probably an easier way that I've forgotten apart from looking up the CPU model.
Linux will show an aes flag in /proc/cpuinfo if it is supported.

Yields me around 20k Particles per day.

No, it's quite new, so there's no exchange where you can trade Particles yet.

Is it any different from existing coins?

Seems like all the mining program require 64bit to run. Is it possible to use a 32bit OS to mine any of these coins?

MemoryCoin has 32 bit miners available for a number of pools. You can pool mine direct from the 32bit GUI.

Do we need another forked version of minerd for Memorycoin or can we use the same one, that mines Quark or Particle? SecondsCoin will rise in a few days. mining and CPU
How many means "a few"...?
