Also, sent you a little tip for the 25% increase in hashrate your cpu miner gave me, keep up the good work.

I'm finally building the windows binaries of the new CPU-miner. After that I'll try to improve the performances 
.
For who said that GPU version is always better. Maybe this is the case, maybe it's not. It depends if and how much the code can be parallelized.
I'll try to see what CPU can achieve. And if it's not enough, I'll study the convenience to mix CPU and GPU, if I'll see that some algo cant be well parallelized on the GPU

+5 DRK my friend - I wish I had more, but with the help of your miner, hopefully more to come.

Apparently the GPU miner can't handle pools going down? It didn't switch to backup pool, and when the first pool was up again it didn't connect to that either. Had to quit and restart it. Is it working ok for others?
Mine came back up by itself. I'm using the linux gpu miner with no backup pool specified.

I'm finally building the windows binaries of the new CPU-miner. After that I'll try to improve the performances .
.Ok, here the link for the Windows binaries -> https://mega.co.nz/#!pBZzQAII!yuvzhcnx3ezLre9fek_G67D0_IyiNqIbEHKY4cKdovA
Read the README for choose the right version for your processor.
Remember, only Windows 64 bit, and only for processors that supports at least AES-NI instructions.
P.S. I hate and I still hate compiling binaries on MinGW, I spent 2 days to set a working crosscompiling environment for this.
The problem was that new versions of build of MinGW64 have a gcc that is hard linked with a new pthread library, called libwinpthread, that it's not good for compiling this... thanks to ig0tik3d for pointing to me the working version of MinGW64...
Very Nice!
I tried to compile it yesterday for windows and I usually can figure things out...but I spent like 4-5 hrs with no luck
Cherry picking some data without waiting to long. Win7/64 i74930 @ 4.5
Old 1.2c = all threads ~700kh / half threads ~560kh
i7 avx-i = all threads ~880kh +25%+ (somehow bounced to 915kh for a while once) / Half threads ~700h +25% (lower power and significantly cooler)
i7-avx = ~880kh +25%
avx-aes-sse2-sss3 = ~880kh +25%
aes-sse2-sss3 = ~820kh +17%
Personally I like the half thread option, it performs faster than the previous version 1.2c all threads. The machine is then still usable and cooler. I don't really care about power draw.
CPU mining is still fine with dark I think, that being said.... CPU mining only people are the biggest bunch of crybabies ever.. I wish there was an ignore button for them.
You deserve a tip.

elmad's new cpu miner yielded significant improvements.
Here are some stats for those interested:
CPU: i7-4770 (stock)
Hash rate: 570 KH/s
Power draw: 80 watts (~87% efficient PSU)
GPU: R9 290 (Elpida, 1000/1500/20%, no undervolt)
Hash rate: 2250 KH/s
Power draw: 188 watts (~87% efficient PSU)
The GPU miner does seem to be far more cpu intensive, though. Giving it one thread while CPU mining doesn't seem to be enough, which is not something that's ever happened with other algorithms (which usually only use between 5-15% of one thread).

Everything goes by so fast, I can't remember what elmad did? In what way did he change darkcoin-cpuminer-1.3?
This was using 1.3, which only recently had a windows binary compiled for it. So 'new' to the non-Linux folk. :3

Funny that you would say that...it was my first thoughts as well! Using that ideology...group and myself are putting together the capital to start a small alt currency exchange with that exact thought process! Being in Canada...I think it would be great that you could go to a brick and mortar office and meet the people that handle your exchanges & money...I think that is super important. You can keep your financial affairs private...but those that handle your funds should always be accessable.... I have the beginings of a great team already that have done several banking institutional sites with ISO 9362 standards. Missing is someone/peeps to create a great front end and logistics for the actual exchange. Any thoughts on how this could be looked at would be great.
Your best bet for getting an exchange up & running quickly/cheaply would be to fork buttercoin:
https://github.com/buttercoin/buttercoin
It's an open-source crypto exchange.

+1 and he should be proud of what he created. It is apparent that he created it in good faith, and backs it up with his name. Just another reason I have faith in this coin.
After hearing about that Maxcoin, I looked up about the guy, and he has total diarrhea of the mouth. He says the stupidest things, most uncouth things. He also let some university students slap his name on something that's worthless. I think he is just an egotist, nothing more.
This is nothing like our Eduffield

Guys/Gals,
This what I get when I run the debug command for sgminer. Can anyone tell me what I can try to get sgminer working. I hate to keep asking rookie questions but I really like where this coin is going and besides, I guess this is how you learn. Any feedback would be great. Thanks.

Hey. Error 11 is very broad but I see you are running a 5000 series Radeon card and most people had the same issue. I managed to fix it on a machine running a 5970 and another running two 5770s
The issue is mainly in your settings, primarily thread concurrency causing the display drivers to fail launching.
1. Use something like this for your .bat
Quote
sgminer --kernel darkcoin -o stratum+tcp://pool.darkcoin.io:3333 -u accountname.worker -p password -I 17 -g 2 -w 256 --lookup-gap 2 --thread-concurrency 3200
I've found on both types of 5xxx cards if I try bumping thread concurrency any higher you will get Error 11, same with turning down worksize. I'm working on a fix for this now but in the mean time that should do it.
2. If the above fails, get the latest Beta display driver (14.1) from AMD from their website (and use the same settings)
http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows%207%20-%2064
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
That should get you up and running for now, it worked for 2 of my machines and a few others on this board. Let me know if you have any more problems.
Code:
Error -11: Building Program (clBuildProgram)
Error compiling program for search.
Frontend phase failed compilation.
Error: Creating kernel search failed!
Failed to init GPU thread 2, disabling device 2
I am using a config file. My GPUs are the following: ASUS 6990, HIS 5770 and driver version is 13.251.0.0
I've been following Syth's posts and their replies with interest because I've had a similar problem with the windows GPU miner (the CPU miner has been fine for me). I've tried the various suggestions as they've been offered, but no luck yet.
My error 11 gives a detailed message "cannot open source file blake.cl" that I have not seen mentioned elsewhere. I don't recognize the filename.
Oh, the graphics card I'm using is an R9 290X. I always get the same error message, regardless of drivers and changes to arguments - thread-concurrency and so forth.
Thanks for any suggestions - and perhaps something here will help Syth also.

Dude, what rig are you running?! I can't come close to that.
I'll probably tell it in a few weeks and we'll all have a huge laugh. That's all I can say.
Didn't posted to brag, but need more people to reduce round times.
