Terminated.
This was needed! Good work! Maybe some editing and use of B, colors and bigger fonts would help and make it easier to read  Wink

I'll work on that!
Yeah sure do, some better formating and such, will make it much more interesting.

Added link to new version 4 of jhPrimeminer (about 25% faster) and a couple new threads of interest

jhPrimeminer (mumus' high performance version 3.0) <---optimized to auto-adjust to best settings and has GMP libs (I use this version but it an unofficial hack. Beware!)
https://www.dropbox.com/s/tauj21tvm06xk7y/jhPrimeminer-GMP-v3.zip (x64 windows executable)

...

Is there a 32 bit version of jhPrimeminer (mumus' high performance version 3.0)?

Or source code?

The mumus version gives me 29000 PPS on ONE of my cpus alone. That is greater than the total of all 4 of my CPUs with HP8. Is this correct??

PPS does not reflect your ability to find a block. At all.
Thus, the huge increase in pps sounds a tad fishy.

And anyway, it increased for everyone in the pool.
You went x10, but all your co-miners too, so...  Cheesy
This is a good point. I also think it is fishy that it shows 10x the PPS. In fact, the actual payout to me in the pool stayed the same, despite the hugely increased PPS & shares. It doesn't seem to really have boosted my results. I don't understand how I can have more shares and pps and not more XPM payout though... What's going on here?
I am earning xpm much faster though in ypool with mumus.  Better than the official build
yeah mumus is the best for me on ypool too

There is now a fixed official v0.35 out, though I will stick with mumus for now.  PPS is not everything and mumus takes a while to experiment and find the best settings for your cpu.  The value of the shares produces is the most important thing, not the quantity.

mechs: is the 0.34beta version of jhprimeminer now as fast as HP8 now that jhprimeminer has those algorithm changes?
I would say yes, though the mumus version would seem to be faster than HP8 or v0.34

Thanks for the info.

Will mining with the HP8 (high performance) client work in pools? I just see the notation that it is preferred for solo mining.

If it will work for pools, is it better than jhprimeminer?
The issue is currently there is only 1 primecoin miner pool and that is ypool.net.  hp8 can be used to pool mine if you had a pool to point it at. However, that would require a pool with either getwork or Stratum support.  Currently, ypool.net supports only pushthrough and therefore you can only use the jhPrimeminer with it.  On the bright side, the latest version came out today of jhprimeminer v0.34 beta and includes all the hp8 algorithm changes.
Oh wow that's great. So basically with the new version of jhprimeminer, we can now mine at ypool with our higher PPS rate. Do I have this right?

Secondly, where do I get the new version of jhprimeminer?
