Interesting discovery: I've found that on my system I can't use more than about 50% of my cores before I run into some kind of bottleneck when mining Securecoin.

See https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3089740 but here is what I'm getting:

setgenerate true 1: 36Kh/s, 101% CPU (61% idle)
setgenerate true 2: 69Kh/s, 198% CPU (52% idle)
setgenerate true 3: 98Kh/s, 290% CPU (35% idle)
setgenerate true 4: 115Kh/s, 366% CPU (27% idle)
setgenerate true 5: 90Kh/s, 360% CPU (26% idle)
setgenerate true 6: 68Kh/s, 283% CPU (35% idle)
setgenerate true 7: 47Kh/s, 262% CPU (39% idle)
setgenerate true 8: 46Kh/s, 259% CPU (37% idle)

This is with a dual quad-core 2.8GHz Xeon. I'm hitting a limit of about 120Kh/s, and this seems to be regardless of whether I run multiple instances in virtual machines, use CPUminer, or whatever. I'm curious what the bottleneck might be.

To be clear: by using various schemes (CPUminer, multiple instances in virtual machines) I can get my CPU usage up over 700% (as mentioned before in this thread.) What I can't do is get any more hashes out of it than I can with half my cores running. Any ideas what the bottleneck might be?

Are you using the quark miner? (I use sse3 version)

My 8350 runs faster each core I add, up to 960kh/s in total (120 per core).

not sure what's happening with yours.

Your trying to solo mine with the wrong port, use what was posted above you to succeed in pool mining (or correct your rpc port for solo).

I downloaded this folder. In the folder are the following files:

libcurl-4.dll
minerd64_avx.exe
minerd64_sse2.exe
minerd64_sse3.exe
minerd64_sse4.exe
pthreadGC2-w64.dll

minerd64_avx.exe - does not start, minerd64_avx.exe...minerd64_sse4.exe - write the following text:

Quote

[2013-09-05 20:56:47] HTTP request failed: Failed connect to 127.0.0.1:9332; No error

it repeats every 30 seconds.

Hi! I checked src.coinmine.pl. Started tab in "Getting Started" have a link to a miner https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-qrk-quark-core-010-upgrade-260031. I download "Windows Qt wallet", but it not work - the window of "quarkcoind.exe" closes immediately after launch. What am I doing wrong?

open securecoin-qt.exe instead

I opened securecoin-qt.exe and what next?

i just realised where that link went, feeleeps getting started for SRC points to the quarkcoin ANN thread, i guess he used the same template for his QRK pool

you want the securecoin wallet from this thread and the QRK miner from here
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B9cvOfoOekSdVzZZcThLZHg4bjA/edit?pli=1

and a bat file with the following
minerd -a quark -o stratum+tcp://src.coinmine.pl:6020 -u YOURWORKER -p YOURPASS

use -t to set the number of cores, eg for 4 cores
minerd -a quark -t 4 -o stratum+tcp://src.coinmine.pl:6020 -u YOURWORKER -p YOURPASS

Ok, my earnings 5.63 just showed up in one lump on cryptsy,,,THX!

My mining stats for est. 6 hrs@ 600kh are:

Credit Debit_AP Fee TXFee
6.45294261 5.63186132 0.01784788 0.05

See how things go.....

THX feeleep for fixing payout

i didn't do anything - this was clearly cryptsy issue I believe. Payouts were working OK all the time but I am checking your income.

Hey I suppose it could be/is cryptsy....i also, just now had a lump of cgb show up on crypsy??? Note: my payout of src is still unconfirmed on cryptsy. Will see what it does. Everything seems a little squirley from last night lol. However apples to apples... i did earn 14 src on p2p and 6.45 on CM, in approx. same time/hash frame..... i know your still tweaking things. I will do a same test again soon.

p2pool had to be extremely lucky as I checked algorithm shared earlier in this thread (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AsoEvtUcZSjWdDJzd3Riek9Mb2RwUVhubUdrdEthclE#gid=0) and with your hashrate (600kH) and difficulty 793 you should get around 19.5 SRC/day.

You earned 6.45 on my pool in 6h which gives lets say 25 SRC/day (we probably has some luck as well). If you got 14 SRC in p2pool in 7 hours then go and play lottery Wink

feeleep

nah the lottery never has treated me that well...lol,,, You almost sound like you dont believe it? 14 in 7hrs ...like I said I will run a bench again and report back soon

I may post a screen shot if needed to prove what I am saying, but shouldn't be neccessary.

beginners luck maybe? lol

My p2pool is going strong. Go to the link below for a quick tutorial.

I believe your site is down to,,,,as of last night? around midnight??? no new blocks have been found.

It looks ok. I noticed that the p2pool went from 700kh to around 60 Mh over night.

Either way PM me and let me know.

Cryptsy has been having issues for a day or so with deposits being delayed and trading freezing.

Is Pool "scr.coinemine.pl" down?

Hi,

It always happen when you sleep :/ - client wasn't have any connections and was not accepting commands thats why monitoring failed. I will put something additional later today, but pool is working fine ATM.

feeleep

Due to the problem it caused I removed pool fee for 24 hours. Feel free to mine Wink

Hey, just sent ya a pm with ID.
THX!

Also, on japool p2p I earned 14 src in about 7 hrs of test mining, hashing at maybe 600 k/h est. I switched over the same miners to coinmine around 1am, shortly after the pool came back up last night and have not received 1 payout yet? Huh

and its now been over 6hrs. so,,,not sure what to make of things.....

hi - pool was down for 6 hrs between midnight and 6AM CET. I can check your details but need your account id
