Hi all

The Github source code and Windows Qt wallet were updated (link in first post updated).

Changes in this version:

1. Added a checkpoint

Improves security of the current block chain.

2. Stricter transaction size checking when sending coins

Some users experienced problems with large transactions (> 100 KB) never getting accepted/confirmed on the network.
This change will fail transactions with more than 160 inputs before they are submitted. If you get an error about the transaction being too big, you will have to send the amount in smaller chunks.
Users that currently have unconfirmed transactions can recover these coins by starting the client with the -salvagewallet option, e.g.
quarkcoin-qt -salvagewallet

Remember to make regular backups of your wallet file.

It's fast, I'll post then all in one place,

the source code:
http://stonefoz.myfastmail.com/cpuminer-quark.zip
the binary: please check if it loads the right libraries. "minerd-bin" is the real thing and "minerd" is a script to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH current directory. Who knows? you might already have libjannson installed.

What about 8 core Operton Linux 64bit?

I just listed what I got and have tested. cpuminer runs a almost full copy on each core, so you should have between 70-120/Khs * 8. Just a guess, you're mileage may very. More cores more faster. Smiley

Thanks so your .zip file contains the optimized QRK based on those CFLAGS?  Smiley

Nope, just the code. I can upload a binary, I'll have to compile it static.. pita and all. be a while....

I've included the libraries that ldd at least lists...? should run on most 64bit platforms.  cpuminer looks to expect it to be dynamic. Which is fine, but I'm not practiced at distributing binaries.

The "JH" section really needs to be updated with an AVX version, which unfortunatly will just be for Haswell, Bulldozer, Piledriver and newer chips. Half of the time is spent currently in the jhF8 function which is coded for SSE2 emmintrin. AVX can more than double that speed for an estimated 25% gain again.

The "Groestl" section is optimized assembly found at the NIST competition site, has the fastest startup which is important when only hashing block headers. Sure there are faster implementations for "big" data, but it's the fastest for quick startup for one run.

Amd optimized cpuminer. probably works on Intel? but code had been targeted for amd with caches at least as bit as the old Opterons.

Must be built with CFLAGS="-msse2", tested on 64bit linux. "jh_sse2_opt32.h" has not been edited for 32bit builds and is currently broken.

4Ghz bulldozer is running 107/Khs per core. Total 428/Khs
2.4Ghz Opteron is running 78/Khs per core. Total 312/Khs.
2.8Ghz Semepron 145 is running 112/Khz per core.

Will be working on replacing sse2 with newer avx, should greatly improve the "JH" has sections along with "Groestl". Those two lost the SHA3 partially  based on speed. Skien, BMW, and Blake already run screeming fast.

any calculator coming? I'm at about 0.14 megahashes but have no idea if that's even good.
thats good enough, just wait Wink
you will get a block from time to time

Can someone see what has happened to transaction 2f6f257cec044783a1f4dc40ef7ae190a0e6dead56eb2ba3a8b15410b923b5f1?

It's been almost an hour and still no confirmations.

The block explorer won't even search for it Sad

Also, can I have permission to call 1,000 Quarkcoins a Charm?

Matthew:out
try start client with this parameter
Code:
-salvagewallet

but at one's own risk ))

It worked!

Lol, sure, call it a Charm Smiley

As for your transaction, try restoring to a previous version of your wallet and resend in smaller chunks. Your transaction size might be too large if the transaction has too many inputs (there's a 100 Kilobyte transaction limit).


Ha ha. I made no backups (massive noob), so it looks like those 3000 QRK has just disappeared off the face of the earth, unless I can get my wallet to replay the entire blockchain...

It's only a 3 Charm transaction to one address. No idea what size that would equate to.

P.S. Always backup your wallet before sending coins.

Why not 1024 ;-)

Using the direct link for the transaction yields also no results:
http://176.221.46.81/tx/2f6f257cec044783a1f4dc40ef7ae190a0e6dead56eb2ba3a8b15410b923b5f1

But, when there are no confirmations, shouldn't it be normal to be not visible?
Maybe that transactions consinst of too many smaller ones?
No idea
