[ANN][RIC] Riecoin: constellations POW *CPU* HARD FORK successful, world record

[bsunau7]

Hi All

Next n-1 optimization got me an 11% gain.  In scanriecoin.c's init funtion change memset and start looping @ 1 (note I've other optimizaitons which might have "confused" this code section so no complaints).

Code:

       // Just memset odd/even and be done
        memset( pSieve, 0xAA, opt_sieve_size/8 );

        // We set odd primes in the memset ;-) so start @ 2nd prime (3)
        for(unsigned int primeIndex = 1 ; primeIndex < primeTableSize; primeIndex++ ) {

We can do this as the base is always an even number so no point looping to bit set every second bit.  Also there is a slight variance as the original code never marked the 1st bit as composite (doesn'tmake much of a difference, but did cause me concern until I spent some quality time in gdb.

Off to work, enjoy.

For others:  Be very careful when doing this.  You need to take steps to *ensure* that the base is always even -- changes elsewhere in code can render this assumption false.  I ran into this the hard way.

The real risk here is that you *won't know that you screwed up* unless you've applied my length-reporting patch.  The kh/s numbers will go up if you apply this change wrong, and it will look great, but it will look good because it's reporting all sorts of crap that then get counted in kh/s but filtered out by the rabin-miller tests.

Ahem, giving away my secret sauce a bit, you can easily ensure that the base is something you want by unconditionally mpz_set'ting or clearing, as you need for your other tweaks, the last bit of 'b' before the call to init().

Apply the length outputting patch and then test bsunau7's suggestion.  It will make things faster if it works right.

Very good point!  I was toying about protecting one of my other optimizations with an odd/even tests for just this point (I get the feeling we are running down the same path).  Question is trust the protocol and be fast or don't trust the protocol and be a little slower (the same could be said for trust the coder...)

In my devel version ran two sieves and bit checked the modified sieve against the original and only found the 1st bit difference.  Also note that my dev code base is 2 steps ahead of the stuff I post (I need an advantage!) which can introduce a different source of errors.

run:
listtransactions '*'

It will show you any orphaned blocks.

what does '*' mean here? afaik 'riecoind listtransactions' shows everything  we need

The asterisk shows all transactions including immature and orphans. I think that without it, you won't see immature and possible orphans. I don't have any immature blocks so I can't double check this.

Oh ok, good to know. Save my self a couple keystrokes in the future.

are these config settings correct?

batch file

Code:

rminerd.exe -a primesr -o 127.0.0.1:28332 -u  -p -t 7

and so long as the username and password in the batch file match up with the ones in the conf file I will receive any blocks into the wallet right? I just dont want to be mining for no reason if there's no pools yet.

[paulus51]

the port number is wrong is a tesnet port dont use it

here use this :

your batch file just change the port adres here to then your of to go ;-)
first start your wallet   namewallet.exe -server then after sync start your miner rminerd

ok so replace the port in the batch file but the rest is ok then?

iam glad it worked out now lets keep those to hard getting coins role softly into the wallets

How can I understand, I mine coins or I mine into the empty?

That is one thing with current setup and minerd miner. You can't really tell.

i don't understand why you use the port:9337 and not the port:28332?

I just wanted to let everybody know that we will launch our Riecoin pool on ypool.net today at 4 PM GMT!

Furthermore I have made very big optimizations to the miner, so we will see a nice rain of coins at launch until the difficulty catches up. Hope everybody has time to be there when it starts

Edit: I am an idiot and said 6 PM instead of 4 PM, so to make it official: Launch is at 4 PM (GMT)

Edit2: We will have Linux source & Win32/Win64 binaries ready

Glad to hear that. Can't wait to mine on the fastest and the most stable pool ever.
