Yes, there is much work to be done on the algorithm implementation.  It is clearly not thread safe (Crashing all of the time) and has no ability to cancel mid-hash.

The crashes I'm hearing of on Windows are all to do with memory allocation - either allocating too many threads (or switching causing too much allocation) - not seeing any thread safety issues. My i3770 has been mining full blast for 24hrs or so, supporting 500 connections, no issues yet.

very good to know, thanks. when do you estimate difficulty change?  which block approx?

2016, about 5 to 10 minutes :)
excellent! :)

We forgot to adjust to from bitcoins default... it will adjust at block 4032, another 22 hours or less.

Given that 24 hours is far to quick to launch a patch we have opted to leave it be.

I thought the retarget is after 1.5 days?

An oversight in tweaking the parameters left it set at Bitcoins default of 2 weeks... which means tomorrow it will correct.

BitShares PTS / Opps... we left the difficulty adjustment set at 2 weeks...

Difficulty did not adjust as we expected so enjoy your easy mining for another day.

When we release the first bug-fix patch we will tweak the difficulty adjustment period for future blocks.

This 0.01 BTC/PTS seems to be holding. We currently have a market cap of $1/4 million on day one!

Current price bakes in expected rapid inflation over the first couple of months.   I estimate the effective valuation north of $2.5 million once you apply this adjustment.

BitShares PTS / Re: Mining on Linux instructions?

So then does the current implementation have any implications for preferring less cores or anything like that?  Does mining with a higher # of cores result in more "stale blocks" for some reason?  Or would that not make a difference.

To be honest, I did not look at what FreeTrade implemented very closely.  I only verified that his results matched my reference design which had only half the HPM as FreeTrade managed to achieve.   Of course my reference design was written for clarity rather than performance and our white paper on Momentum talks about potential optimization strategies.   I am sure it won't be long until someone comes up with something better.

I'm gonna go with implementation issue, considering kill -9 can stop anything dead in its tracks.  Once you see a valid block all current mining instructions should be halted and restarted with new latest block.
