make something in it require windows to run if that is possible

if people want to fire up the vps clusters at least it will hopefully cost them a lot more to rape all the coins away.

huh? As a linux user i find that statement highly offensive.

Memory intensive would prevent GPUs as the transfer rate to/from GPU kills productivity. On my old project, there were 3 different tests, trial factoring (at which the GPU was 100+x faster), LL tests (at which the GPU was 6-10x faxter) and P-1 (which works in 2 stages, I think they got stage 1 to work at 2x speed, but I don't think they ever got stage 2 to work)

...How would you do it?

I, personally, would use something like AES as the base cypher, due to AES-NI. But then, AES is pretty easy to implement on a GPU.

I note Quark uses multiple cyphers, but again, those aren't hard to put on a GPU.
