you mean 25 hashes right not kilohashes or megahashes? so only 25 math problems solved per second? are these math problems much more difficult than X11 math or scrypt math?

so would you estimate with all the above hardware i could reasonably expect to solve 2 blocks per week?

Yes, just hashes per second. The total network hashrate is only about 300 kH/s. The proof of work here is intentionally much slower (memory bound) than X11 or scrypt in order to favor CPUs.

I'm not familiar with the other CPUs listed -- if combined they're about equal to 1-1.5 i5-4670K's, then you can expect 2 blocks per week. The easiest thing to do is just test the hashrates, sum them up, and calculate your average blocks per day using the formula: Hashrate / (Diff/60) * 24 * 60 blocks per day, with each block giving about 16.9 MRO.

just curious, how many blocks do you guys think a machine with an i5 4670k could find in a week?

I have a couple of gpu rigs but the cpu's aren't doing anything

an i5 4670k
an edit: AMD sempron 145
an A8 vision AMD laptop processor
and 5x Dell M6300 dual core?
i had these machines on darkcoin up till now but i believe monero is a superiors currency compared to darkcoin and would rather use our computing power to generate this one

my grandfather is a systems programmer for IBM as well as a former microsoft coder...and I am a miner...we have tons of cpu power around here...

anyone willing to help me figure out if i should put the time into mining this coin or not? est blocks per week with all these machines?

Or do you even want me too =P

An i5-4670K would manage about 20-25 H/s. This would get you a little less than 1 block per week (~14-15 MRO/week). You're not competing against GPUs and this coin is younger so this is probably more profitable.

Simpleminer is going to be replaced by cpuminer soon, and that has an option for number of threads. Until then, just launch multiple instances of simpleminer.

do you run one instance per core?
Yeah.

Hey devs, slow_hash.c is very hungry for stack space -- it segfaults when hashing the genesis block with a mingw-64bit build.  I noticed you increased the stack size limit with MSVC in the makefile, so it would be a good idea to place the equvalent inside the MINGW conditional -- set(CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS "${CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS} -Wl,--stack,10485760")

Alternatively, you could place long_state on the heap since it wouldn't slow things down much at all.

Why does anyone want to use a pool that doesn't work yet?  Huh
I don't, but will when a working functional pool is up.

how do I use the pool
it says to download a wallet and simple miner. do I have to use that one or the one i have already created and have been solo mining on.

also, do run bitmonerod locally or just open run the simpleminer.

this is my command: simpleminer --pool-addr=mon.hashharder.com:5555 --login=45zQuFfmbwC6o4aq7vVxXUbwUE31FEywxehsVmGY5C4o9ZgaPXZDnVm347ECvwT75gVPnVBAkHNKMDMiQ8Sz7NHrKsGD9J1 --pass x
also as above, I am curious how to add threads.

All that being said, I have bought a LOT of Monero, relative to the amount of money I have, and I am considering buying more.

As have I, wolf. As have I.

How use threads with simpleminer ?

I took a quick look at the code I think you just need to run multiple copies. Run it as many times as you want threads. Unless I missed something.



Yeah, multithreading is on the TODO list, but we also hope to have a proper cpuminer fork out soon too.

OH no,should it be fix soon?

In testing

http://mon.hashharder.com/index.html#

Code:
simpleminer --pool-addr=mon.hashharder.com:5555 --login=address --pass x


I wona know how did I add the mining-threads?
Code:
--mining-threads=3
or
Code:
--mining-threads 3
or
Code:
t=3
does not work at all
