Does HVC mining needs a powerful CPU?
The wallet sure does, constant pull on the cpu.
you need to disable the wallet's CPU miner...
It is disabled, still 25% pull. I should have mentioned that in my first post. =)
Plus when it sync'd the block chain I kept getting "Mined" notifications for wallet address other than mine. Strange. My confidence level for this wallet is low.
EDIT: gen=0 in config file didn't work, had to go to the wallet's options. Why is this stuff not turned off by default, oih.
