Being open source does not mean every user is a coder (I am, but still) so I guess the point that “you can just roll out your own client” is a little off. But why is satoshi integrating this on the server in the first place? I say that the […]

Re: tcatm’s 4-way SSE2 for Linux 32/64-bit is in 0.3.10
Quote from: ArtForz on August 21, 2010, 16:56:31 AMD K10: 2 128bit units intel nehalem: 3 128bit units This probably explains why hyperthreading increases performance with -4way. If three SSE2 units is excessive, then hyperthreading would help keep them all busy. Related posts: Re: tcatm’s 4-way SSE2 for Linux 32/64-bit […]
Read moreRe: integrating digital payments into p2p protocols
Folks: I just posted this note over on the Trade forum: http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=30.msg10592#msg10592 There are a few hackers who would be pretty interested in contributing patches to integrate BitCoin payments directly into the Tahoe-LAFS storage protocol. It would be a big job! It would probably take a year of effort before […]
Read moreDevelopment of alert system
I’ve been working on writing the alert system. Alerts are broadcast through the network and apply to a range of version numbers. Alert messages are signed with a private key that only I have. Nodes can do two things in response to an alert: – Put a warning message on […]

The difference between new and older CPUs is pretty easy to explain. Older microarchitectures have 64-bit mmx/sse execution units and split 128bit sse ops into 2 64bit microops. Newer archs have 128bit sse units. AMD K8: 2 64bit units intel Core/Core2: 3 64bit units AMD K10: 2 128bit units intel […]
Read moree: 28 days without generation, i have 4200khash/s
Hi. I know difficulty is high, but is normal having a machine with 4200khas/second 😕 In the past, i generated a bunch. Search debug.log for “proof-of-work found”. If you find any, then check for any errors right after that. Quote from: davidonpda on August 19, 2010, 19:43:01 How big of a […]

I’m not sure what to call it, but we could use a post that lists these things users should know. If someone has time to write it, here’s the list: – Make sure your clock is set correctly. – Microsoft Security Essentials. This never got written up proper. – Warning […]
Read moreRe: Hypothetical question on lost coins / transfers
I think not. I think that when a client considers a block bad it gets the transactions that were in it and rebroadcasts them or puts them in a block themselves. That’s right. You don’t need to be re-broadcasting your transactions for it to work. When any node disconnects a […]
