Topic: CPU Miner - Output Typo? (Read 610 times)
So turns out I was mining for litecoins on my CPUs, not bitcoins. Hence the speed being 1000x slower than it should have been.
Yes CPU Miner is notoriously slow so that is not surprising. I should probably install it on my computer but not sure if it is worth even bothering. My GPU is even slower though.
I have diablominer running on my 5770 and I'm getting about 170mh/s
So then I got to thinking, since the computer is running anyway, I might as well run CPU miners. There are 8 CPUs after all. two quad-core 2.66 ghz xeons.
So I managed to get CPUMINER to run. But it's only reporting about 5.5kh/s per CPU. But that's gotta be a mistake, no? I should be getting at least 5.5mh/s. Which is still pretty terrible but at least it's something.
