Well i missed the boat on this one.
Yeah, I missed it, too. I wish I got into to this coin in the early days. Same with Bitcoin. I wish I started there a few years earlier...

Is anyone else having a issue getting minerd working on windows8? I'm running 32 bit, that is probably the problem.

where is?
this brief posting is all you will get from me I'll leave it to others to optimize the CPU miners.

Guys, to optimize cpu miners use a midstate approach.
You can put the block header's first 80 bytes (including nonce) into the sph_fugue256() function and all that changes between hashes in the sph_fugue256_context is the ctx_fugue.partial field which is nonce in big endian notation.
Duh, so precompute state once per scanhash call - all remaining work is done in sph_fugue256_close() run inside the scan loop. instant 5x speed gain.
My Phenom II X6 got 2.5 MHash/s out of this on 6 cores.
It's a low hanging fruit really.
Next, address SSE2 or AVX vectorization and get close to 5-10 MHash/s.

Hmm... can you compile a windows x64 binary for us/me please Thank! edit: where is the source code ?

edit: where is the source code ?
I am not in the business of making cpu mining software, really. agran, the sourcecode repo you pointed out is the wallet software. I think it's better to start with some cpuminer fork (either pooler's or Jeff Garzik's). If any mining pools are offering cpuminer binaries based on one of these two, you can just ask for the source code (GPL requirement!) the wallet can only solo mine, and that may become pointless at some time. So any CPU optimizations in the wallet would be pointless too.

Anyway, do you know of any tuts or a way to learn how to do this midstate? Going crazy googling but I think my google is not working today

Yeah, I missed it, too. I wish I got into to this coin in the early days. Same with Bitcoin. I wish I started there a few years earlier... I bumped the thread enough time to give a chance to get in at low diff, well, now it's much much harder indeed. But not to late. Some are selling at low price right now, invest some and take the bet before it hit an official Market, like a lot of did in the earlier BTC years. This way there is no regrets. { "blocks" : 15590, "currentblocksize" : 0, "currentblocktx" : 0, "difficulty" : 30.06979320, "errors" : "", "generate" : false, "genproclimit" : -1, "hashespersec" : 0, "networkhashps" : 6 323 170 089, "pooledtx" : 7, "testnet" : false }

Could someone make python hash module, for fugue algo so we can get more pools?

I added support for fuguecoin in sph-sgminer. Source code is here: https://github.com/prettyhatemachine/sph-sgminer. Speed is about 145 MH/s for R9 290. Building: ./autogen.sh ./configure make
Example usage: GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=100 DISPLAY=:0 ./sgminer -k fuguecoin -o 127.0.0.1:6666 -u foo -p bar -I 25 -g 4 -w 64
No, I won't make Windows binaries.

Congrats, but my GTX 780Ti is making 180 MHash/s I've been hashing with 1.2 GHash/s, and some of my friends filled the remainder to 2.5 GHash/s for NVIDIA cards. That was about half the network hash rate for some time. So we'll have to release our baby too, or the nVidia fans will be sad. No it isn't called cudaminer. Heavycoin support will be included too.

Mine is just a quick job without any major optimizations. I tried to precompute midstate, but it didn't help much, no idea why. Will investigate when I have more time.

okay with midstate you will beat nVidia by factor 2 or so. That's expected for compute bound hashes.
