John as always, quite productive and amazing. Thanks for the update.

Yeah, John got my maximum respect as a developer, rarely see anyone working nonstop on his/her project on a daily basis. Vanillacoin has also a unique codebase, so it's probably more time consuming.

Indeed. So unique that it sucked back over 2gb (1.5gb upload/ 0.5gb download) of my bandwidth in less than 6 hours. Thats pretty freakin odd considering how only 41%/ 39mb of the blockchain actually made it to my HDD. WTF is going on here ?

And .. should I be surprised to see the shitalgo King preying on yet another shitalgo cpu only coin ?

Running 24/7 - 754MB so far (in/out) in a month.

uTorrent as a reference 24/7 - 83.17GB (in/out) in a month.

Didn't get the second part, it's not a CPU only coin.

EDIT: uTorrent in past 31 days - 2.6TB, watched wrong section.

This, like SPR and many others, didn't start that way.

How much VNL was gpu mined before the (deoptimized) kernel became public ?

If you are talking about GPU performance in the early days and now, it stays pretty much the same +20-30% maybe (don't know exact numbers), Wolf0 still has not published his optimized kernels yet.
