whirlpool-->whirlcoin because it lack optimization
thanks for repeating that everywhere after all the time I spent improving it...
and this isn't entirely true
(you never said that groestl was crappy before Christian released killer groestl... and currently this is where whirlpool is,
it isn't (yet) killer whirlcoin but went through at least 2 or 3 rounds of optimization.)
regarding power efficiency. Saying that a gpu use less power over a long chain, means it is less efficient not the inverse.
