Bitcoin Talk

Version 0.3.10 patches the block 74638 overflow bug.   http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=823

The Linux version includes tcatm’s 4-way SSE2 SHA-256 that makes generating faster on i5, i7 (with hyperthreading) and AMD CPU’s.  Try the “-4way” switch to enable it and check if it’s faster for you.

It is no longer necessary to delete blk*.dat.  The good block chain has overtaken the bad block chain, so you can just upgrade and it’ll automatically reorg away the bad block chain.
