I am researching a productive proof of work system that uses sha256d.

Imagine being able to do productive hashing at ASIC speeds

Sounds interesting, I'm curious as to how that would be helpful. I mean surely there are better solutions to compute than hashes, isn't it ?

It actually has nothing to do with the hashing algorithm itself, the productive proof of work system we're working on should be able to use the SHA256D hash for its calculations.  Because its productive, we want many large ASICs generating many solutions as fast as possible.
