Bitcoin!
Out of curiosity, what is everybody's take on the *purpose* of litecoin (especially coblee's opinion)-- is it supposed to replace bitcoin, or is it supposed to be used alongside bitcoin.

Yes, this is a binary I'm using now. Still better than i7 64-bit version (even though my CPU doesn't support SSE4a instruction set) but not great. I suppose you need AMD CPU and Linux OS to effectively mine LTC on current software...

I'm getting just shy of 4KHps on one of my 2500Ks.
That's per thread, with four threads in total. (Can't edit my post, sorry.)

For the love of God, please tell me how you getting this and what OS and compile flags you are using etc.

Thank you !

It's still better than <2KH/s per thread on my i7 2600K 4.7GHz... Well, I should probably blame Windows for that.

If you're on a 64-bit OS, try this executable: http://www.wuala.com/jbw9/pub/Bitcoin/Tenebrix/miner/win/test/minerd-amdfam10-sse4a-64.exe/

Believe me I've been trying, you can ask g2x3k about my complaints about Linux on IRC.  Tonight I'm going to install Fedora with dual boot instead of running it off of a VM and see how it performs vs what's already out there.  If there is a big difference at all I'll go back to fighting it to make a windows binary.
OK, I'm looking forward.

Looking forward to more Intel optimization. How much are you getting with a 2600K ( latest data ) !? Thanks.

miner for osx?

You can build it yourself on OSX it works well or depending on your machine I could send you the minerd I have compiled for my machine it is 64bit binary compiled for machine that supports up to the sse4 instruction set. You can find if yours uses sse4 by sysctl -a |grep cpu.features in a Terminal window.

can you upload the file to rapidshare or something similar?
i have a q6600 and osx lion.

What is the fastest miner for LiteCoin right now? If theres any difference, for an AMD system
k10fam with sse, 64 bit
where would i find it?
http://www.wuala.com/jbw9/pub/Bitcoin/Tenebrix/miner/win/test/minerd-amdfam10-sse4a-64.exe/

It even beats every Intel miner that's out there on Intel processors. Credit to twobits.

Wow. Thats like >50% faster on my Core2 quad, assuming the reported hashrate is correct!
Is there a linux version of this?

Why am I only getting rejects? All "booos", no "Yay".

Which miner currently would be recommended for a machine with core i7 running WinXP 32bits? (don't wanna compile it myself, never had much success compiling complex things out of the 'net)

Download Windows client: https://github.com/downloads/coblee/litecoin/litecoin-windows-client-0.5.0.4.zip
then download miner: http://content.wuala.com/contents/jbw9/pub/Bitcoin/Tenebrix/miner/win/minerd-corei7-avx.exe?dl=1

rename it to minerd.exe and put into Windows client folder.




If it doesent work, download this one: http://content.wuala.com/contents/jbw9/pub/Bitcoin/Tenebrix/miner/win/minerd-i7.exe?dl=1

rename it to minerd.exe and put into Windows client folder.

Due to the rumor of a possible 51% attack, I decided to lock in block 23420 in the latest code. Everyone, please grab the latest source or download and use this Windows binary:
https://github.com/downloads/coblee/litecoin/litecoin-windows-client-0.5.0.4.zip

Chances the rumor is probably unfounded, but better safe. Plus if you haven't downloaded the recent clients, you will find a cool mining tab waiting for you to play around with.

Windows daemon: https://github.com/downloads/coblee/litecoin/litecoin-windows-daemon-0.5.0.4.zip

Mac client and daemon: https://github.com/downloads/coblee/litecoin/litecoin-mac-client-daemon-0.5.0.4.zip

It was hard to build a statically linked QT app on the Mac, but I've got one confirmation that this works. If anyone runs into missing libraries errors, please let me know.

Ok, I have Tenebrix-miner running now.  The output says:

Code:
thread 1: 13695 hashes, 3.07 khash/sec
PROOF OF WORK RESULT: true (yay!!!)
thread 0: 10568 hashes, 3.09 khash/sec
PROOF OF WORK RESULT: true (yay!!!)

In my ozco.in account, it says my worker has a hash rate of  4KH/s

Is this reasonable?  Shouldn't it be in the MH range?

Whole LTC network has 11MH/s at the moment - and it's lot of miners
You cannot compare BTC and LTC hash rates. Different algorithms.
For LTC is way more complex  Cool
