How do I modify the .BAT files to allow me to mine solo?

I know it's port 9332, but what should I put for the url, username, and userpass?

You should use the values of "rpcuser" and "rpcpassword" from your litecoin.conf file.
For the URL you should use the IP of the machine that is running the Litecoin daemon/client; if everything is on one machine, the default value (http://127.0.0.1:9332/) should do.

wow and now I see it got to 38kh/s Shocked

I wonder how could it fluctuate that much. It is also interesting that on Win XP 32 it barely makes 7kh/s on the same hardware.

I got 46kh/s on a 2600K @ 4.5GHz after compiling the miner on ubuntu (which was a pain in the ass).

(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

I just installed 64bit Linux on core i5 2400 @3.1GHz and it runs up to 30kh/s! 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

Unfortunatelly I was not able to run lm-sensors on that Linux so I cannot check.

How in the world are you getting 10.5 KH/s per core?

4 threads on i7 2600k can give 10.5 kh/s pro thread

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:

or you can use command start to launch a program with a set priority
start "title" /low command

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

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.

that's what I've been doing.. but it's a little harsh when there's only 2 cores

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?

hangover: this version should build correctly with binutils 2.15. Let me know if the assembler still complains.

pooler, everything builds correctly, thank you!
