Released gapminer linux binaries, windows will follow.

Thank you for the linux one! Cheesy

One question about the algo and the records. So we have to reach  35.4245 difficulty.
Does that means that if hashrate never gets bigger we wont find record prime gaps?Even if we mine for much more time?
What  hashrate should the network have  so that we can reach that difficulty? I want to realize how fast we can actually reach that. Will it take some months or a year or 10 years?

Of course i understand that better miners will come out and pools will help but i want to have a comparison.

Miner compiled by me on Intel for Linux, did not work for AMD. When I compiled on AMD all was adjusted.

When you compile the miner on your own it uses spectial compile flags for tuning, like:

Code:
-march=native

"Native" means that the code produced will run only on the CPU which compiled it.

The published binaries were not built with that type of optimation, meaning they will run on both amd and intel.

EDIT: fixed blocks per hour (thought it 5 mins, now reflecting 2.5 min)
primes/network= .009
i'd say I have a .9% chance to find a block each round.
thats  21.6% chance each hour and
average of 5.18 blocks per day
i've found 7 blocks with my 2 systems in 1.5 days, so that's pretty on par.

Keep trying.

Is there any indication how long it should take to get soime coins? I.e. after mining x hours at 20000 primespersec you should find a block?
Or is it just totally random? There are people in the richlist that have 100+ coins. How did they manage to do that?

Theoretically you will find a gap with merit m (~difficulty) within e^m prime gaps:

e^20.45 = 760890487,  so you will need to calculate about 760890487 primes to find a new block.

If your primes per second are 25000 then you will need 760890487/25000 = 30435 seconds, which are about 8:30 hours.
So you will finde ~ 2.8 blocks per day.

The rpc-call getmininginfo has a new value called gapsperday, which is calculated using the above formula.


My stats, 2 machines:

Primes per sec combined: 43k

Gaps/day combined: 5

Blocks found since launch: 4 Sad

Yay, statistics!

I got the miner to build on mingw64, but it crashes after submitting a share but before the share message is placed in the log. It looks like something with the line

    info_msg("Found Share: %0.10F  =>  %s\n",
             ((double) cur->get_pow().difficulty()) / TWO_POW48,
             (accepted ? "accepted" : "stale!"));

in shareprocessor.cpp causes the crash, since it stopped crashing (on testnet at least) once i turned it into just
info_msg("found share\n");

btw it would help me a lot if you could compile a binary of gapminer and uploaded on github too Smiley

Almost forgot to mention, Gapcoin has two new RPC calls:

Code:
listbestprimes amount (min merit)

Returns a sorted list of the best prime gap merits.

Arguments:
1. amount        (numeric). number of prime gaps to display
2. merit         (numeric, default = 16). minimum merit to display

Code:
listprimerecords merit

Returns a list of all prime gaps with the given integer merit.

Arguments:
1. merit        (numeric 1,2,3..) the prime gap merit.

Note: The above rpc-calls can take a long time to respond.

Hey j0nn9. I am using some computers mining with gapminer on another computer and it seems to work. So i got 'share found' which as far as i can understand it shoud be block found on the daemon of the other pc. But it seems that i didnt found anything.

So my question is, can gapminer indeed mine on another computer's daemon or i am doing something wrong and i am just wasting the miners power? They seem to get work and mining... Could it just be an orphaned?

Yes, it should be possible to mine with gapminer on another computer.
If gapcoind accepted the block, you should see something like this: "Found Share 20.798565  =>  accepted"
otherwise: "Found Share 20.798565  =>  stale!"

When your share (block) was accepted, it can still be orphan.

Unfortunately i deleted the logs but i will check it next time. Thanks!
