This does not make any sense, the diff has not even risen enough yet.

I mined two blocks roughly 3 hours apart and for the next 24 hours ago I get no mined blocks. I am using an I5-3570k at stock with "primespersec" : 129, yet nothing for 24 hours. Surely I am not this unlucky, am I? The processor utilization is actually at about 100% too, so I am surely mining. Anyone know what is going on?

76c on a 3770k is chilly drummer guy...jus sayin.
Up to 90c is perfectly fine.

use setgenerate true 2

or 4 for 4 cores.. use the number of physical cores you have.. without the "-"
do i need to do this i have 32 cores but my pps is 1 something is not right

WAIT a minute, let me guess, four 8 core opterons?

It was only the wind.
i thought setgenerate true  without any "x" meant it used eight cores...   maybe he just needs to wait a while before the client shows the pps?  wen i started mining through the client the first time it took twenty minutes to show up any speeds at all


"setgenerate true" uses how many physical cores you have in your machine, not infinity, and not 8.

What I meant was infinity is the software limit. The software limit, when set to -1, will never be lower than the number of cores you have, no matter how many cores you have.

Give it 10 minutes or so.

Mine was around 4 for the first 5 minutes and now it's stable at around 135

How do we implement flags using the debug window? And what extra flags would you use for a i3 ivy bridge 3.4 GHz 2 cores 4 threads?

That shouldn't fix anything. -1 just means ∞, or rather, no limit.

I7 3770k/4thread.. 4.37ghz.. 70-76c darkknight 2 cpu cooler.. I don't really like running it that hot.. but hey.. it's summer w/e

First block was within an hour or two of the start of mining.. amusing that some of you with much slower cpu's have found more than this?  I want screenshots lol

The longest known Cunningham Chain has k=17.

So far the highest found by primecoin are 9 long in blocks 116, 1592, and 2044.

The distribution is skewed towards chains of 7 primes as the difficulty started at 7. I'm expecting difficulty >8 within 4 days and >9 by the end of the month. In time we will start to see some significantly long chains, but I can't see this project delivering chains longer than 12 that match the hash of the prime blockchain for another year at least.
Before we can get longer chain the network pps will have to go up.

And do we know how to measure the effective pps rate of the network?
