It should have, although it would be slower. Possibly even slower than if you had used "-march=x86_64".

EDIT: -march implies -mtune. Don't use -mtune.

Yes, march implies mtune, but not vice-versa.

I will give -march=x86_64 a try, thanks for the suggestion.

no bueno on x86_64, possibly my version of gcc is too old, not sure.

error: bad value (x86_64) for -march= switch

EDIT: NVM, should be x86-64.

All right, here's a binary compiled for x86-64 in general with -O3. Won't be as fast as the i5-specific builds, but HOPEFULLY this one will work over a wider range of processors.

Just a reminder, DigitalOcean 16-core instances get around 2500-2600 primes per sec, and cost $0.72 per hour.

So that's why I'm no longer getting any blocks :s

Yeah.

Quite a few people now have >10,000PPS.

so pretty much the arms race is lost for most users Cry

Not really, GPU miners are on the way(not by me, but I am sure they are).

Okay, can we get instruction on how to extract coin from our DigitalOcean droplet. It has been so long since I have had to do console/coding like this Sad

.

Sure. I do it this way:

ssh into remote instance
./primecoind listtransactions –> copy the address mentioned in the output at "address"
./primecoind dumpprivkey {{paste copied address here}} –> copy the private key returned
on your local computer holding the "master wallet" -> ./primecoind importprivkey {{paste copied private key here}}
now address holding the minted coins appears in your local wallet

No need to send coins over the blockchain this way, immature coins can be imported immediately.

So does this basically merge the wallets, or do I need to worry about what I already have in the 'master wallet'?

It's kind of a manual merge. Technically you just add a new address to your existing "master wallet" just like you could with any other address, too. In our case, that address is the one your newly minted coins were credited to. (Minted coins are always credited to a new address internally.)

All other addresses in your "master wallet" will remain untouched as will your remote wallets.

After importing the privatekeys, I see the blocks still show in the original wallet. I guess both wallets think they own the blocks. So.. if I spend some of the coins in the block involved, do both wallets register the transaction?

If I find this confusing, how do I make the original wallet to forget the moved block (but not all the blocks) ? I looked it up but didn't find answer. Thanks.

If you spend some of the coins in the block, the other wallet might see the tx on the blockchain, it might not. If you try to spend from both wallets, one tx will make it into a block, the other won't. You can't delete private keys from a wallet, so you can't make it forget the block you moved.

anyone have any issue with coins-e?

Any one got Blocks by using Release5 ?

I just got one with release5, and there are a few posts in the other thread from other people who have had success with it. I've heard release3 is finding blocks as well. I haven't heard about the rest, but they all use the same codebase so theoretically if it doesn't crash immediately on your computer, you should be good.

Sounds like my releases may only work on quad-core processors.

It only works on those with the instruction set extensions that an i5 has.

Makes perfect sense, thought there was at least one guy with the same i5-2500k processor I use that couldn't run my build. Software is strange sometimes.

I understand why using -march makes it processor architecture specific. Shouldn't my last release with -mtune=i686 have been more widely usable? That should still work on other families, just optimized for i686 instructions (I thought).

It should have, although it would be slower. Possibly even slower than if you had used "-march=x86_64".

I have gotten a block on release 3, I haven't tried 5 yet. I will when I get home tonight. (or a more recent version, if available)
