SAME error as YOU 
About a 10% increase for me...
Any chance of a windows compiled version?
I removed now the big optimization, too much CPU dependent... Try now and PM me if you want again that 10%, I'll say to you what change on the code...
Ack! I just tried compiling it on other machines, and I get

Ok, I fixed the remove, now you can compile. Expect 10% as before where to had it.
HammerHedd and the others, if you have different machines and different behaviours, please send me a pm with a table like this:
Code:
CPU ------- v1.3 ------- new v1.3
i7-3770k-------459khs--------511khs
Hmmm... still getting the unterminated comment error in xcoin.c Maybe it takes a while for the repository to register the change?
BTW, elmad, you a re a mad scientist genius!
EDIT: Got it, working correctly now... stand by for some hash numbers...
Code:
CPU ------- v1.3 ------- new v1.3
i7-2640k-------50.15khs--------55.68khs
Obviously this is a per thread average rather than overall hash rate. More to follow when I get mother machines going... Sorry, laptops got done first

BITCOIN @ MTGOX is US$ 90 per BTC.
There are few potential alt-coin that can over take BTC.
Hopefully, DRK is one of it !!!!!!!!!

Nobody uses Gox anymore, you can't withdraw and nobody knows if they're gonna enable it again. BTC is at about $550.

Two more. That's it, I'm taking a break.
XwBidPQVnGFEzqfJbTybS9gyXX2yu1JbfM
Love it, just ONE small change and we are going to use it!
Made the outer ring silver. If you can make us that with a transparent background, we are DONE!
And when we get the physical coins made I will send you one.
I want one real too ....
Me too! That'd be so cool!
For the back of the physical coin we will need a design for that too! Who ever designs it will also get a physical coin free!
Max 7 colors, no gradients!
Please let us know when / where we will be able to get these physical cons! Any chance the first run would be numbered in any way?

Also, isn't heat (from a physics perspective) considered a by product, or mark of inefficiency? An incandescent lightbuld uses part of the energy input to make heat, which is inefficient. An LED light makes much less heat, and is much more efficient (as a measure of energy input vs light output).
Efficiency is not counted that way (excess heat vs work done) in semiconductor chips... These have high resistance and thus practically all energy passing through them is converted to heat. If a chip consumes 10w of energy, then it also produces ~10w of heat.

I must say I started mining this coin yesterday and everything runs 50% plus cooler. I need to get my killawatt out and see the draw compared to a normal scrypt coin. So far I love it!
Thanks Devs
Thanks Devs
I also put few of my card to mine this coin and it's true that cards run a lot cooler.
Please post results from that killawatt reader.
Ok here are the results. This miner is a 4x270
Normal Coin: 887 - 892
Darkcoin: 550-552
That's a huge difference on my power bill
Yep. Mining scrypt my rig pulls 1150W doing 2.1Mh/s. On darkcoin it uses 650W doing 6.2Mh/s.
As someone else has pointed out earlier though, this reduced power consumption could simply be because there's way more code optimisation to be done yet and the GPUs are only doing 50% of what is possible. I can make my GPUs run cooler mining scrypt coins too (and more efficiently) if I want to.
Here's another point of view... assuming that we can't push any more performance out of the GPUs while mining darkcoin, it could be argued that it is less efficient because you need to purchase 2 cards to do the work that 1 card should be capable of, in terms of raw computing power.
I was thinking about this earlier, does anyone know how hot GPUs run mining bitcoin? If that runs cooler I would tend to think the extra power draw and heat is because scrypt pretty much rewrites the entire ram available as fast as possible over and over again, whereas Bitcoin/Darkcoin would only use a small amount of ram.

Indeed, but all of the electricity used by a computer is turned into heat, there is no other type of energy output (if you ignore light from the screen and sound from the speakers).

Anyone else here getting the feeling the price of Darkcoin is about to explode?
Normally I don't make posts like this, but I'm feeling a breakout tonight. I'm liking what I see in the charts.

Hmm can you explain...
Crystal ball?
The video with 96 views 2 hours ago?
Ilumination?
The successfull test of DarkSend yesterday?
I feel it too, in the bones, LOL. Otherwise I would have waited to but my dark, but I fear I won't see it this low again

Yet another point of view: Because of the variations in the algorithms, there might be more CPU involvement, and the GPU will never reach "peak efficiency" because it is being re-tasked to run a different algorithm, which will take some number of cycles away from raw computer cycles, or at least running them differently...
[Disclaimer: It's quite possible I'm completely off base here]
[Disclaimer: It's quite possible I'm completely off base here]
CPU use is practically 0% for me. Actually the cpu is so free that it can run cpuminer at full speed, like the gpu miner didn't even exist. I think that the GPU is simply losing time in some operations in which it is not good at. CPUs on the other hand may "rape", in terms of speed, some operations that the GPU cannot due to, say, lack of instruction set, large l1 cache etc.
