what hashrate is everyone getting?
i'm getting ~ 156,000 MH/s on a rank old 7950



This is broken. You're more then likely not hashing properly either due to a OC going wrong or something else. If you start hitting blocks it's worth mentioning.

Nethash is at 107TH now.

He changed the pascalsha.cl with Notepad++ according to the Benchmark portion of the readme. Those nonces are not valid blocks found.

"....and modify the .cl code by changing the lines:

      uint targetX = h0 & 0xFFFFFFFF;
      uint targetY = h1 & 0xF0000000;
to
      uint targetX = h0 & 0xFFFFFF70;
      uint targetY = h1 & 0x00000000;

This essentially lets the code find nonces 512 times faster, and accounts for the 512-times-faster-sharerate by reducing how many hashes it expects each nonce solve to take by a factor of 512, while removing the overhead of writing files (since writing a few files a second may cause it to be slower).

If you notice your miner finding several of the same nonce, try lowering the intensity and/or cyclesize (because you're sending so much work to the GPU that it can't get a timestamp often enough, so it exhausts the 4-ish billion possible nonces (~4 GH), and starte repeating work). "

dead right, spot on mate.
i was having a few issues getting it going, and used the kernel i the benchmark folder in place of the one supplied with the opencl-proxy-miner; forgot to swap it out.

back to a much more believable 413mh/sec..

on game though mate, well spotted Cool
