Topic: [XPM] Primecoin Built-in Miner Sieve Performance Issue - page 5. (Read 69150 times)
only mined coins are immature though if someone sends you coins/buy from exchange they don't take so long
15-17hrs mining now, mostly with the compiled original 0.1.1 version in linux. Runs at about 900-1000pps, fyi. Got one transaction that stayed in immature state for at least 3136 confirmations. Tried Chemist's version for a few hours, maybe some difference in primespersec, then switched back to original.
Another pc running the same period of time in windows with the stock qt version, fetching about 100-150pps, wasn't as "lucky".
Today is a different day
PS. Does it always take that long to confirm immature transactions?

Yes...

nvm, different build.
0.1.1 works great. Thanks SK.

Perhaps PPS isn't the actual goal after all, since I think this measurement is largely misunderstood.

lol, my A3-3300 (the cheapest AMD proc on market) has over 250 and sometimes over 300 pps :pp
I thought the Sempron 145 was the cheapest?

Mining for 13 hours now with around 1200-1500 PPS and not a single coin yet... does anyone actually got a coin with this build?
I`ve try every build from this tread, and still nothing. I`ll appreciate any help for my still going problem.Mining for 13 hours now with around 1200-1500 PPS and not a single coin yet... does anyone actually got a coin with this build?
im sure you are just unlucky
found 2 blocks last night with chemist build
0 blocks about 72 hours on 11 G Sandy dual core cpu`s; 2x i5 and 2 i7, i test every release.
Same here........
Stop whining about people so called 'stealing blocks'. They are not stolen, they are earned.
You can't really consider using amazon equipment for a lil cash, "earned".... like... AT ALL! I wouldn't call it stealing either.. but it is an unfair advantage to the common folks with decent machines that want to mine for the greater good or to support a dev.. or to make some profit's.. but when it's a solo mine only coin.. that nobody can mine anymore.. because of a small group of people that found per hour access to cpu's.. sure great idea.. but so were asics.. look what that did to bitcoin... how many of you without asic's are mining for bitcoin? none?
I do not see what the issue is with ASIC's on bitcoin. The network is now much better secured against a 51% attack than ever, ASIC's give a much lower hash/watt than CPU or GPU or even FPGA miners could ever dream, and you can buy an ASIC miner yourself for only $90 bucks and have it arrive in less than a week. Yes, there are less people mining, but those who remain still increase the networks security from a 51% attack due to how large of an order of ASIC's the vandal would need.
Also, amazon instances are not an unfair advantage. You are free to use them yourself, the order process is painless, at most you would loose than a dollar, and setup time takes less than half an hour. You are as free to do this yourself as they are. Mining on EC2 is just as beneficial to the "common good" and the devs than a single CPU miner, if not more. Want to make a profit? Well, competition is ramping up, as it should be.
Also, using amazon's second largest CPU instance gives you less than 1,500 pps. It makes more sense to just buy the hardware yourself to mine than to use a VPS.
So, we just need one miner with a gazillion TH/s, and Bitcoin will be perfectly secure!

Thanks for the reply: seems like it's only my bad luck...
The first 3 block are found with the release : https://www.dropbox.com/s/lxm220qqztpgps5/release12_x86-64.zip
The others are found with the official release : http://sourceforge.net/projects/primecoin/files/
I've a Intel Core2 Quad Q9400 @ 2.66GHz

0 blocks about 72 hours on 11 G Sandy dual core cpu`s; 2x i5 and 2 i7, i test every release.
something's severely broken in your setup - 20 systems here. Seeing avg 1 block/hr.
Which build are you using?
Sunny's build. Tbh, I'm not sure I trust the "chasing pps". It was mentioned before this isn't a greatly indicator of how quickly you'll find the blocks.
Oh btw - I should add these are 20 "high-end" systems.

Now that's just naughty! Who's stealin 'dem blocks! 
I hope the block size becomes 0.000145 XPM by next week, so we've got a pre-manufactured scarcity on our hands just like BitBar--combine that with the new POF of this coin and resistance to GPU mining I think we've got a winner
Btw, how the F%^K do you mine 60K PPS? Server farm? I'm not even at 1K with 3 processors!

"Unfair advantage". What do you think mining is? The block reward given by mining is compensation for computational power that goes toward securing the blockchain. The only fairness it is supposed to have is that it's proportional to the amount of computational power given to the network.

between 5 and 7 am seems to be my sweet spot no blocks the rest of the day and 3 each morning between then lol
