Thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't work unfortunately.  I'm using HP10 also.

{
    "blocks" : 158764,
    "chainspermin" : 7,
    "chainsperday" : 1.10043503,
    "currentblocksize" : 1000,
    "currentblocktx" : 0,
    "difficulty" : 9.86619937,
    "errors" : "",
    "generate" : true,
    "genproclimit" : 10,
    "primespersec" : 1701,
    "pooledtx" : 0,
    "sieveextensions" : 6,
    "sievepercentage" : 10,
    "sievesize" : 1000000,
    "testnet" : false
}



It is a dual processor Xeon X5650.  I think it should be performing better than this.

What are the best settings for Xeon processors? I'm running 2x 2.66 GHz Xeon's and getting pretty low chains per day:
{
    "blocks" : 157519,
    "chainspermin" : 10,
    "chainsperday" : 1.18470870,
    "currentblocksize" : 1000,
    "currentblocktx" : 0,
    "difficulty" : 9.86931497,
    "errors" : "",
    "generate" : true,
    "genproclimit" : -1,
    "primespersec" : 1754,
    "pooledtx" : 0,
    "sieveextensions" : 6,
    "sievepercentage" : 10,
    "sievesize" : 1000000,
    "testnet" : false
}


so 24 threads (2x6coresxHT) giving this results? that seems low.
give 12 threads (genproclimit . 12) a try - HT is throtteling on some cpus...
