No, it doesn't matter. Increasing it will probably just bloat the network and slow everyone down.

addnode=54.224.142.224
addnode=54.224.28.160
sievesize=2000000

Looks like your miner wasn't turned on to mine.

what are the addnode's? Is this something I should be putting in my .conf file? running windows

No. Noobs do it thinking it would gain them something, the more addnode lines the bigger the n00b.

Thanks for sharing that info. Since I haven't found blocks for some time I needed someone to confirm these settings do actually find blocks. The speeds are much higher, but I have no idea if they actually produce blocks faster (if at all). I've used high PPS/CPM as a measure for success simply because it showed success on testnet as an indicator for high BPM's. So finding the highest PPS/CPM on mainnet was my goal.

We need a larger sample though to determine what settings are best. I"m sure someone's finding a lot of blocks with one or both settings we just need to have them confirm their settings. But, I can understand people not sharing successful BPM settings. It's just hard to determine BPM when you have 1 CPU on mainnet to test with. Embarrassed

So, I'm willing to find the highest PPS/CPM settings if someone (with a lot of rigs) will confirm the BPM's for me/us.

I'll post when I find more blocks but so far the only blocks I have found have been on hp7/hp8 with the 1m sievesize (three on one 3930k on hp7 and one on each of the lower end ones previously mentioned). I have family members mining on another 3930k/an i7 laptop getting 2k pps/ 5cpm/a phenom II getting 3kpps/5-6cpm and they haven't gotten anything in the two days they have mined - it seems to all come down to luck with this, but the only sievesize we have found blocks on was the 1m setting so far, not the 100k setting. Then again, the 100k setting might be much better and it could be a combination of good/bad luck across the different computers. We really have no way to tell since the testnet isn't reflecting the mainnet right now.

On an unrelated note I got an interesting address when I created one to put in my signature ending with "GodxCD". I am a little amused that I got something with some sort of word in it just by chance.

Right now I'm running into something weird - I set up a few computers in my house mining primecoin on hp8 - half had a sievesize of 100000 and half at 1000000 (I forgot to change a few settings). Since the release of hp8 I have had the two lowest end machines that I am running on each find a block with the 1m sievesize and none of the other machines (much newer/better) have found anything with the 100k sieveesize since the launch of hp8. It's probably a coincidence but it's still strange to see a Phenom 9500 getting 1k pps/2 cpm and a laptop i5 getting 1500 pps/2 cpm each get a block on the 1m sievesize while two 3930ks each getting 10k pps/20cpm get nothing in the same time frame with the 100k sievesize that people are suggesting. To me this is saying that the 1m sievesize is better or the numbers really don't matter in mining right now. What do you guys think?

so it's easy to compare configurations.

eh. From my experience, I see no comparison from testnet vs mainnet, unless you reverse everything.

you can find out if you are actually mining blocks, which is good. but the settings that work on testnet usually don't work well at all on mainnet.

for me ... right now, higher settings do well on testnet, while lower settings do better on mainnet.

I wish testnet gave some indication of settings to use, but (due to the difficulty difference?) it doesn't come close.

Yeah, you're right... I should have added "theoretically"

I have no set any option for testnet... How to do? And why?

Use the '-testnet' switch when you start, or put 'testnet=1' in your config.

It's just for testing - you can generate blocks quickly, so it's easy to compare configurations.

I'm guessing you didn't sync the blockchain fully and you were farming blocks that people had already mined.

Not quite how it works, he just wasn't on the longest chain.
