Alright, so just updated my version (currently on github) such that each thread an independent evolving weave timing parameter.  To compare to mine with Sunny's most recent update, I used the testnet where my version found 30 confirmed blocks in 10 minutes while the original code found 16 confirmed blocks.  I feel that this is a legitimate comparison because there were no other nodes on the test net currently mining (I know this because my client found every continuous block in both cases).  This comparison was performed with a t61p IBM laptop with a T9300 Core 2 Duo processor.  The current difficulty on the testnet is 5.4426.  

Going to test this with the 8 threads on my Core i7 next.

Mind linking to your github? The speed this thread is updating is a bit overwhelming. Thanks in advance.

Updated my profile website to link directly to it, just fyi so you dont have to keep coming back here...

Good news, got 4 blocks today on the main net with your fork!

Linux? Windows 7? What processor? How many PPS/Blocks per 10min? Using Cheisist's build right now on combined 1000PPS. Nothing.


BTW to anyone who misunderstood my post earlier about how "WE NEED" I wasn't trying to demand. I was just trying to vocalize a common request in the community. You should check out Reddit. There are plenty of people there very excited about this coin and even doubly excited to see where devs. like yourselves can take it: http://www.reddit.com/r/primecoin/    So thanks for all your hard work. I've already donated to one of the devs.
