You mined 2000 coins in a single day?  Can I ask what hardware you're mining with?  I was only getting about 500 coins with an i7 3770K overnight using 6 threads on main dev pool.  Maybe I should have allocated more CPU threads.

EDIT* Nevermind, I see above post.

You should use 4 threads.. cache/2mb = threads for best performance

Are you sure? i think its the number of cores (not threads)

He should be using 3.
You need 2MiB per CPU thread. For example, an 8-core CPU with 8MiB cache can optimally mine with about 4 threads. Beyond that, there will not be enough room in the cache
So the optimal thread count is cache/2mb
