ROFL. And it was me who contacted Kalroth to notify of exploit going on. Not blowing my own horn but for now I am happy that both Kalroth cgminer and Veox sgminer are patched ... Now onto pool related issues, I think that waffle has to embrace scrypt-n coins as scrypt is becoming less and less profitable. As mentioned earlier (by many others besides myself) there are several choices:
1. wafflepool can start a scrypt-n only port for mining (and become #1 scrypt-n multipool). I think multipool.us already announced a partner scrypt-n pool
1.5 mine both
2. coders can help ThirtyBird with development of kernel-switching mining client.
3. All of the above
Client/pool authentication sounds like it will be a long way off, for now let's concentrate on regaining profitabilty.

It's clear we all should go into the scrypt-n direction. But how much RAM do you guys have installed? 4 gigs, 6 gigs, 8 gigs?
It is not entirely clear to me how Scrypt hashing works with 2 gigs of RAM and Scrypt-n (with N=11) needs .... .... 4 times as much RAM?
How come?
