It seems that MTC had a panic sale in both exchanges. There are no more reasonable buy orders.

Best moment to buy Wink   I got some at 0.00068

I took the time to finally get xptMiner to compile with GCC for Windows.
It was a nightmare for me, but what does that mean for you?  Christmas may have come early.

I've compiled my optimized code for each of the following architectures: generic, core2, corei7, corei7-avx, k8, k8-sse3, and barcelona (k10).

The Windows x64 binaries are available from here:
https://mega.co.nz/#F!YsZSHYKA!IC8LK_MBGwqC-gWOpO7zoQ
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/wtxvxvkirxax2vj/9P_Rxb9V1y (dropbox mirror)

Use whichever corresponds to your processor architecture.

If you're unsure, here's a quick guide based on your CPU manufacturer and age:
Intel: [Older] core2 -> corei7 -> corei7-avx [Newer]
AMD: [Older] k8 -> k8-sse3 -> barcelona (k10) [Newer]
Worst case scenario, use generic.


I will not be releasing any 32-bit builds.  "High performance 32-bit" is an oxymoron.


Let me know what sort of improvements you see!
Some builds may be slightly slower than the stock jh00 miner.  It all depends on your CPU.

I've added another 5-10% optimization to the code and hopefully fixed the issue with AMD builds.
It seems that mingw-gcc thinks that AMD processors don't support SSE, so it left them disabled.  I've fixed that.

The code optimizations have been pushed to the github repo.
The new binaries have been uploaded. (same URLs)

More good news!  I've added support for more processor architectures!
I've added support for core-avx-i (ivybridge), core-avx2 (haswell / 4th gen i7), bdver1 (Bulldozer), and bdver2 (Piledriver).

Also, the optimized miner now has it's own thread:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annmtc-high-performance-cpu-miner-for-metiscoin-linux-windows-436583

Hey hey!  I've got an update on this little project.

I've made a few cache and memory tweaks and squeezed out another 5%.
I've also added AVX builds for Intel and AMD processors that support them.  (I haven't fully tested these, so feedback is appreciated)


The changes have been pushed to github.
The files are now available for download.


The Windows x64 binaries are available from here:

I'm trying to compile wallet on Linux from most recent sources, and here's result:
Code:
cd /home/metiscoin/metiscoin/src/leveldb && CC=gcc CXX=g++ make OPT="-pipe -fstack-protector-all -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -O2" libleveldb.a libmemenv.a
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/metiscoin/metiscoin/src/leveldb'
make[1]: `libleveldb.a' is up to date.
make[1]: `libmemenv.a' is up to date.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/metiscoin/metiscoin/src/leveldb'
cd /home/metiscoin/metiscoin; /bin/sh share/genbuild.sh /home/metiscoin/metiscoin/build/build.h
/bin/sh: share/genbuild.sh: No such file or directory
make: *** [/home/metiscoin/metiscoin/build/build.h] Error 127
It looks like dev cleaned up too much in recent commits.

after git clone
Code:
cd metiscoin/src
chmod +x leveldb/build_detect_platform
mkdir -p obj
make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-

...and the result after some time is:
Code:
/bin/sh ../share/genbuild.sh obj/build.h
/bin/sh: ../share/genbuild.sh: No such file or directory
make: *** [obj/build.h] Error 127

Developer removed the whole share directory from the project, but it looks like some necessary stuff was there.

Do you get your payouts from ypool? I see a payout in my account that was almost 1 hour ago and it still did not make it to my wallet.


Yes, I maked 2 hour ago, 5min and get my wallet this coins!

I think payouts are set to once an hour it does take a while sometimes, you will get them though.

Hey, is everyone tired of developer fees on linux versions of xptminer? Sure - the developers made it all possible, but if you are like me, you are pretty greedy with your coins. That's why, I took the open source code for xptminer, and removed all of the developer fee sections of code! Why am I posting it here, well to get donations of course! I'm well aware most people wont tip or donate, but it's worth a shot! Here's how you do it:

I accept tips to: M8u6BhbCF4YfRVWshixCneZ74gN6JXdWHG
Type the following lines in the terminal:
Code:
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install build-essential bc curl dos2unix fail2ban haveged libboost-all-dev libdb++-dev libminiupnpc-dev libssl-dev m4 -y
  wget —no-check-certificate https://www.dropbox.com/s/c1761a414nldhpr/xptminer.zip
  unzip xtpminer.zip
  sudo CFLAGS="-march=native -mtune=native” make
  ./xpt -o http://ypool.net -u user -p pass
I am running this on several of my machines with ubuntu, and it has worked fine for me. Let me know what you think. It's exactly the code off github, with donation code literally just commented out haha.
If it was my version, you could just use the -d option and set it to 0. Lot easier.

for now is fair price... when is arround 0.0006-0.0008 BTC
in next 3months could be 0.002-0.003 BTC if not dies this coin.

After fixing a SIGBUS error I managed to get clintar's miner working on ARM.  Still some issues (which don't seem to impact mining)

Four A15 cores x 1.4GHz getting 125kHash/s

No optimizations yet but I am getting about 25% of hash rate of my E5630 (per core).

ARM looks to be over 6 times more hash per watt (getting any publish power consumption number for my ARM is difficult!!)

Whoa sweet dude! care to share your source code fixes?  Which Micropc has 4 A15 cores???

look up odroid.com for the XU boards, they make use of the Samsung SoC's used in Samsung devices.  Also look at radxa.com, I don't have one but a cheaper price and higher clock but an A9 chip without CPU heatsink (i.e no sure how hot it'll run).

The xpt parser was causing the crashes (when compiled without optimizations it would run at quarter speed and not crash).  Patch which was a quick hack and only addresses the crash (and I've not validated correctness!) is:

There are other parts which potentially suffer from the same effect (but don't crash) which is why I assume the "ping" messages are sometimes screwy.

I might roll it into clintar's latest and see how it goes.

Anyone want to check out my latest commit? I need more testing. Some say it's slower and some say faster than my old. about 20% faster was one report. You might want to clone into a new directory to test in case it's worse.

https://github.com/clintar/xptMiner

 I still need to make a howto, but you can probably use these instructions for dependancies.
