Since difficulty is low can we CPU mine this much like Primecoin back in the day?

I have 5 servers each with 128 cores that sit idle all day in a test environment. I cant find a CPU miner anywhere.

Any one have one that's pool capable?

Hi drozenski,

    With 128 cores, maybe pick one of the 5 servers and sync a datacoind on it (will take a couple of days) and then send a setgenerate call to the RPC.
    You'll then be able to tune the setsieveextensions and setsievepercentage values through trial and error for optimal results.

Hi drozenski

This is very interesting.  Please report on your experiences in this forum.
