is there a optimized miner out yet?

You can compile it yourself with needed optimizations for your target cpu

Xeons seem to perform kinda bad, i get 44 hpm on 32 cores (2.2 ghz each) in 32 threads (getting less with 64) thats 1.375 hpm per thread vs 2.5 hpm per thread on an ivy i3

Its because you count HT as normal cores. So dont use HT or use better compiler

It has 32 physical cores and 64 with HT, i7 perform better with threads = HT, guess xeons dont.

And how should i use a better compiler on standard ubuntu?
Maybe they dont mean better compiler but better compiler optimizations.
For reference, the supplied client does 10hpm over 3 cores on a 4ghz i5-3570k with windows 7 64bit, on the same machine but in 64bit linux it does 40hpm over 4 cores.
I have too wonder, considering how much ram this algo uses that maybe having lots of cores could be a bad thing when you only have 1 memory controller, it could become a choke point if the memory bus can't move data fast enough for all the cores.

Another noobie question..

Is it better to run 2 wallets at 3 processes (total 8 hps each) or
3/4 wallets at 2 processes (results still at around 8 hps)

And also

If I stop a wallet as I need to restart a pc for any reason, does this mean the mining has lost its work and hours put it?

May I ask, how are you checking this for the rest of us?  In windows?

... going on for hours. Neither did this block seem to have been submitted. Only after I restarted it did it start syncing.

For a small-time miner like me, orphans are a serious blow, especially an orphan caused like this... Sad


EDIT: My other processes also stopped syncing around 4200~4400...

Hey does anyone has trouble with dumpprivkey and importprivkey?

I can't transfer private keys between clients, and I'm not even sure they are backing up correctly. When i try to import it gives:

Invalid private key (code -5)

It should be fixed in git repo. My fix was merged

Hi,

You can force it to look at a node on startup.
