Repost. Updated

AMD Bulldozer optimized client Win64bit and maybe some intels
---===---===---===---
built from StoneFoz version1 Which doubled speed and beyond

v2 was having many issues (+reject, +orphan for me) , bin below is version 1

8150 Stock 8 cores = .8~1.1 mhash
8350 Stock 8 cores = 1~?? mhash
4300 Stock 4 cores = .46+ mhash=+

Bulldozer 1 (more compatable) and Bulldozer gen 2 (more specialized)

Re-posting because this is not AMD bulldozer only, and may in fact work on the newer intels as well.

this is not the uber optimized client, will post when over 2mhash per chip

and i'm telling you AGAIN it crashes on my Intel CPU (both versions in the archive)
i downloaded it before and tried them all and i re-downloaded just now and tried them all..
arguing doesn't make code run lol

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 = fail / crash on start up - win 7 x64
and yeah i checked and these are 64bit builds not x86

and your welcome for the constructive feedback and time and effort i took to test this everyone Wink

edit:
I'd love to know how that guy is compiling code from GitHub.. all its giving me is compiler errors with mingw on windows
i can get various previous version of the code to run just fine..
i often see "get the tarball" but how am i suppose to find that ?
all i can see on the github page is the button that says download zip or that other page with the .zip + targz
and that can't be the tarball because i see these devs constantly telling people asking for help compiling it code to not use it and use the tarball
when autogen.sh fails etc.. so obviously the tarball should have more files inside the archive in it so you don't have to run that command right ?
this quark miner stuff is severe pain in the ass for a noob to come along and get the newest version and compile.
these miners should have dedicated topic or do they already ?

bottom line: I'm figuring it all out on my own anyway, so whatever keep scrolling guys lol
started in on linux and c/c++ well over a decade ago and its sucks balls i can't use VS as an ide Sad

so yes i am a noob but no i am not.. i may start a new thread soon with a tutorial on building this on windows for people..

Sorry, I'm not quite the wizard with autotools. Anyway, compile it on either linux, or someone has been successful with mingw or cygwin. Autotools doesn't do MSVS. SO HERE:

git clone https://github.com/uncle-bob/quarkcoin-cpuminer.git
cd quarkcoin-cpuminer
sh autogen.sh
./configure CFLAGS="-msse2"
make

-msse2 is not optional, should be built into the build scripts. However, I've avoided getting good with autotools this long, might as well not start now. Really anyone have a simple examples for autotools? They seem to all turn into a huge pita quickly. Step two might be cmake or anything else.

really though, the code at:

http://stonefoz.myfastmail.com/

is probably the best, first release where fast is first.
I've been monkeying around with stuff on github, should be faster later, just not anytime soon. Rewriting large bits and it's going to be broken some times.

I was having some trouble with this also but there is a README that suggested using:

Code:

./configure CFLAGS="-msse2 -O3"

This finally compiled correctly on my Xubuntu linux box and seems to be running properly.
