Alright folks, time for a version bump. Version 2.1.3- Support for extensions "midstate" (reduces network bandwidth usage) and "submitold" (used by p2pool).
- Smart handling of long polling failures: switch to short scantime if long polling fails.
- It is now possible to specify username and password in the URL, like this: --url http://username:password@host:port/.
- Added a --version option, and (finally) cleaned up the output of the --help option.
- The miner will now complain about non-option arguments, instead of simply ignoring them.
- Minor bug fixes.
The source code is, as always, available at GitHub. No binaries yet, sorry, I couldn't find diki on IRC. Windows binaries here. Brief note on the -s/--scantime optionI have seen people suggest various values for this option in order to reduce stales when mining in pools. The funny thing is that, to my knowledge, all Litecoin pools have long polling permanently enabled (which is good), and when long polling is enabled the scantime parameter is completely ignored. For this reason, the use of this parameter only makes sense when you are mining solo.

hangover: this version should build correctly with binutils 2.15. Let me know if the assembler still complains.
pooler, everything builds correctly, thank you!

I notice at 100% CPU it does cut into the GPU hash rate for bitcoin a little (on the same machine). I wonder if an option for 'intensity' could be added so it could be configured to use only 95% CPU?

If you are running linux or Mac OS X you can use the "nice" command to alter how the process is scheduled.
Windows has something similar, but I don't recall what it is. Probably accessible from Perfmon or Resource Monitor.

Yes, in Task Manager, there is something called Priority, you can set it to whatever you like, but NEVER to real-time.

This is on windows and the process priority is already as low as it can go. Anyways not a big deal overall.

You may want to try out one of these free utilities, that allow you to limit the maximum CPU usage of a process: http://deztec.jp/x/05/faireal/BES-index.htmlhttp://threadmaster.tripod.com/

(Just looked into this "LiteCoin" thing today) Followed the instructions on pool-x for my i7-2600k, got 8.8 khash total for 4 cores. Just replaced the default files with your ones, now getting 10.5 khash, PER CORE, for a total of 42.0 khash Wow ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) How in the world are you getting 10.5 KH/s per core?

So I think this is possible to achieve with i7. Fuzzy did you notice if turboboost activates or not? According to Intel it can go up to 3.8GHz http://ark.intel.com/products/52214/Intel-Core-i7-2600K-Processor-(8M-Cache-3_40-GHz)Unfortunatelly I was not able to run lm-sensors on that Linux so I cannot check.
