Using the new build, downloaded fine the only thing I noticed was at the end of the chain download my client was unresponsive for about 5 mins, the harddrive light was going but there was little load on cpu. After about 5 mins it ran normally, I am sending out one txs at 5 secs

This implements the fabled "headers-first" synchronization designed by some bitcoin folk. Old block database is no good so you'll have to delete that/the whole folder. Probably some bugs left. Hopefully will sync for you and run.

Mrvegad I will be looking into why your wallet causes extreme slowness. There is hope.

The idea for the mini-blockchain sort of started off as a plan for compressing the bitcoin blockchain but it became clear to me that we'd have to make a new coin if we really wanted to get the maximum level of compression, because we have to forget about using scripts and instead use a "balance sheet" type of format for maintaining address balances. So when a transaction is made all it needs as an input is a non-empty address, there is no such thing as spent or unspent outputs, and that's why we're able to discard old transactions.

One of the big questions I haven't seen addressed on this is, was this started as a project to create an alt coin, or to integrate into BTC itself.

There are some more details here but not much, looks like a new coin https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=643758.100

After about 1.5hrs of sending out one txs at 5secs apart and moving the clock on my computer forward and back the client became very slow to respond. No matter what command i gave it it would take 2 to 3 mins to respond, my txs were still going through but they were taking longer then 5 secs. A restart of the client did not help. Deleted the chain and once the chain was loaded typed in a command and it was the samething. Toda Today i started with clean chain and wallet and sent out one txs at 5 secs, i ran it for two hrs with no problems (i didn't touch the time on my computer )

Same thing, client won't work. Do you have any info that shows timestamp?  I have been playing around with the time on my computer, moving it ahead, backwards that sort of thing.. I was doing this too the last time my client got messed up.

It looks like this is a different bug than the -1 confirmations thing. In fact I see no evidence of any problems in the log. Can you describe in greater detail the symptoms?

10 minutes sounds pretty good. Having a script send money when you don't have any likely won't cause any problems. The client just returns "insufficient funds" instead of the transaction hash.

The block target is 1 per minute but the retargetting algorithm is a type of filter and it takes a lot of blocks to fully adjust.

so sake of caution, call it 10 minutes would be safe? It's not like the clients would need many, just want to make sure it fires up every time.

Rightio sir!


While I am thinking about it, if you had to guess at a time frame for an average pc to earn say 5k coins mining, what would it be? (in minutes) Reason I ask is I am tinkering around with an install script to set up multiple clients across my lan and vps's that might help scale your tests and would want a time before having each instance start spamming.
This depends on the block target time.. an average computer should get 5-25% of blocks which are worth 25k each. I can send you up to 16 million coins if you want..

[edit] also, what is the procedure for testing new builds? Delete everything and start from scratch? Seems like when I try to keep my old wallet it wont start properly...

??
Just delete the .cryptonite folder. If your wallet contains the -1 conf bug like mrvegad that might be why it's giving you problems. Just delete it and start again.
