I made little to no modification to their code for this first commit. If you appreciate their hard work on this Open Source project, please send them your thanks and donations!

Thanks to the three of you for your work to date! Plonk, plonk, plonk.

Heh, thank you njloof  Cheesy I really appreciate that.

Quick update: I've been working with makomk's modifications and they do appear to be giving the performance increase and area reduction quoted. In fact, I saw ~75K LEs when I synthesized. Power consumption was estimated at 4.7Watts. Very impressive work! I'm doing another compile now and will do a live hardware test soon, to confirm correct share submission to mining pools.

EDIT: Just tested the new code on live hardware (DE2-115). Works great  Grin
