-O2 generic build: (generally -O3 gives some errors at end but seems to run fine, I'll go the safe route first).

Topic: [XPM] Primecoin Built-in Miner Sieve Performance Issue - page 14. (Read 69150 times)
Waiting for windows compilation. Not by my backtrack linux system. Gotta work in 3d win apps, which reminds me I should be working :p but I can't turn down news like pps increase 
Silly question, but where do i find the latest patched/optimized branch that I can build on ubuntu ? 
https://github.com/primecoin/primecoin
if you don't have git installed:
sudo apt-get install git
then run
git clone https://github.com/primecoin/primecoin
(or git clone https://github.com/Chemisist/primecoin for my optimized version, until the pull request is committed on the main branch)
then follow the instructions in doc/build-msw.md
this.
I seem to remember build-msw.md being aimed at building on Windows.
yeah, you're totally right... see build-unix.md. That was pretty dumb, eh?
Let me know as soon as you guys find a block! I'd like to make sure it is actually working on the live chain...
Sollid 50% increase in pps with your patch, thanks! (Ubuntu, single core Xeon based VM).I'll let you know if I find a block, but I've been mining since release and only pulled an orphan, so far, so...
Am I the only one experience a pps decrease? Dropped from ~4500 to ~3000...
How many cores is that running btw?
16 cores, 32 threads.
Hmm. I suppose that this is indicating that my "improvement" pretty much sucks for that many cores/threads, sorry!

Code:
git clone https://github.com/Chemisist/primecoin.git
You need to be root.
exactly the same
Then PPS drops, I will switch back to primecoin/primecoin.git untill I figure out the problem.
Code:
make CXXFLAGS="-O3 -march=native" -j16 -f makefile.unix

Keep in mind I'm getting wide variations in pps, too, but overall it is a solid 50% increase at least.
Maybe let it run a couple more minutes while watching ?

Saw a decrease on my virtual servers too, but only when multiple instances run (from 500 down to 300), when only one instance runs pps go up from 1000 to 1300. On old CentrinoDuo laptop pps remained the same.

How do you grab the https://github.com/Chemisist/primecoin via linux command?

The Chemist version has -O3 flags changes for the record.
Is the O3 flag using more memory under compile or under usage?

Hell yeah, thanks for letting me know!

what kind of system are you running this on? I've only tested this with my intel processor lineup
I'm observing wide variations in pps with Chemisist patch, anyone else ?
Ranging from 170 to over 300, while official release was more stable @around 150.

will do
are the compiled binaries up ?
Not yet, sorry. Working on getting them compiled.
no need for apologies your doing good work
are you compiling a windows build ?
I never got the windows compilation to work when this first launched on Sunday, so I've been doing all my development in Xubuntu 12.04. There are some guides in the main thread (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/xpm-ann-primecoin-release-first-scientific-computing-cryptocurrency-251850) if you need help compiling. Not sure the exact pages they were on, but somewhere in the 30-60 range
Windows build would be amazing!
