New source (0.8.8.1) is up with optimizations in the hashing. Hashrate should go up ~4x or so, but may have CPU architecture dependence. Windows binaries are up as well for both 64-bit and 32-bit.

Do you know if the optimizations are in bitmonerod or in simpleminer or both? Just trying to figure out if this will help pool mining via simpleminer or solo with bitmonerod.

Thanks

Both.

Fantastic work NoodleDoodle. Compiling and testing it now.

Running windows x64 executable (bitmonerod), hashrate increased by 4.5 times: 20.5 => 92 H/s
Platform is Intel i7 3820 Sandy Bridge-E, 4 cores with hyperthreading. I mine with 7 threads, CPU util reads 88% and I know from testing that mining with 8 threads does not add a lot to the hashrate, and so I leave that last thread free for other apps.

Thanks NoodleDoodle for getting this done so quickly, testing changes on three platforms while under pressure - good work.
A lot of miners will be relieved that there is no longer the risk of some unfair competition going on.

Can't believe this coin isn't on bigger, more visible exchanges.

its still pretty new.

New source and 6 threads already up to 70h. Really excited for 16 threads.

Looking good

That's good! Here we go!

Trying the updated files now.

WOuld it be a good idea to call 2 threads per core?

You need to test it on your hardware. There is going to be dependence on things like cache size and model.

We probably want a monero mining hardware comparison page with tested/recommended settings for each type of hardware. There was one for bytecoin but it was pretty old and incomplete.

Hmm, ok. I'm running 6 threads on a xeon 8 core right now, cpu load is around 20-30%. Will let it run over night with 16 and see if anything melts or catches fire.

I'd be glad to contribute to the database.

minerpool.org is taking a lot of time to get the new jobs and that's why processor level is 40-100%. On my core i7 I'm mining with 8 threads to http://minerpool.org and 8 to http://extremepool.org/ (there is no such problem with extreme pool - with 8 threads it's taking 100% CPU, but it seems minerpool.org is finding more blocks, so I'm mining on both).

we need to go on coinmarketcap asap

is there a explorer that show the number of mined coins in real time?

then i sent a request

This shows the number of mined coins: http://monerochain.info/charts/coins

Nice optimizations. Compiled on my four servers and I'm up to a total of ~1.1KH/s from ~400H/s.

Has https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B7RQILpPGrQbYnF2OTA4NklrWmc been updated with the latest binaries?

Yes, it's updated. Those are the Google Drive mirrors I was referring to. You should restrict usage of them because Google will shut it down if it sees high traffic (i.e. don't tell your pool to go download from them).

Then why does monero.cc tell everyone to go download from them?

Well, that helped, now getting 160 hashes per second total from my few computers. Up from like 30-40. I own the blockchain.

Please upload files, somewhere else.

There are Google Drive mirrors for all of these linked in the OP. They should not be used unless mega.co.nz doesn't work for you (due to bandwidth limitations).

And the pools report last block found on network "about a minute ago", yet the pools themselves find nothing for hours or days. I have 5 CPU's mining with 95 H/s. What kind of setup is making up the rest of the hashing power? Maybe someone has sorted themselves out with a working GPU miner...

I figure its either:

A 20-30000 computer bot-net
Someone developed a gpu miner on the quiet
The pools are all reporting the wrong network data (I hope its this - but the rate of discovery of blocks by pools would suggest otherwise)

Is there a bounty for a GPU miner?

It's not a botnet. Its an admin with a lot of servers. So its someone who has invested a lot of money and hast costs to cover. I dont know if you guys realise but there wasnt a cryptocoin as exciting since Bitcoin. Thus, this project attracted a lot of people with CPU farms, many Hero members and people with the skills to optimise code. What do you think would have happened if people had this awareness about crypto in 2009 ? People would have invested big money into mining. This is what is happening. I suggest that if you can't mine, or if you cant mine as much as you would like, buy and buy fast before you regret it.

Even with this explanation, I feel that something is not right. I get the feeling that someone is taking all the blocks...

I have a strong feeling the cudaminer guys already have a working but non optimised gpu miner. Asked on their thread and got a hint-ish response so..
