Based upon early tests here are my relative mining performance by computer.
1) Digital Ocean 2 core 100%
2) 2.3 Ghz i7 Mac Mini 1000%
3) 3.4 Ghz i7 iMac 1400%
Your milage may vary.

All of them in Linux x64? Is there any test on windows x86 wallet?
-
I do not have a windows machine to build for windows 64...
Yes, all Linux64

How are you able to run ./protosharesd to test the speed when there isn't a genesis block yet? When I try running it, I get this:
$ ./protosharesd
protosharesd: src/main.cpp:2839: bool InitBlockIndex(): Assertion `hash == hashGenesisBlock' failed.
Aborted
EDIT: Nevermind. I see in the other thread (http://"http://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=36.0") that this is as far as we can go until the genesis block gets posted. Thanks.

when I run ./protosharesd I get nothing displayed. hmm maybe i am tired. am I forgetting something?
ha nm please ignore my tired brain, poweroff may be soon.

How does this translate to/from "hashespermin" ? thx

I got around 6.5 with 3 cores when I left my PC.
Let's see if I mined something when I'm back home in 8 hours :D

I was running three processes and found a block but apparently the mining overloaded the computer and it stopped working on the right blockchain, and the reward was never confirmed :(

I have a machine mining at 50 HPM that has only found 1 block and it started mining within the first hour.

I'd be interested in your mining stats Bytemaster, how transparent are you ? :)

He'll have "a lot" -- but not like Satoshi a lot. I cpu mined bitcoin in july 2010 on my then year old macbook pro...remember, this was about a year and a half after the Bitcoin genesis block, and I could mine like I did Protoshares on Tuesday:
(http://uofr.net/~bcg/a.jpg)
I haven't made a Protoshares block since Wednesday. I'm sure it was easier on Monday (I'm a doctor and I was post-call monday and too tired to futz with my computer). So even though Satoshi didn't pre-mine, he did mine with a larger fraction of the network hash rate a lot longer than Dan (I realize the PTS/BTC time scales, production rate, etc are different, but, I doubt 1.5 BTC equivalent years got crammed into 3 PTS days).
At any rate, my bigger fear is that he didn't mine enough. A very important aspect of this endeavor is to pay for this really smart dude to make something really really revolutionary; Bitcoin as an invention didn't fit into a category until Dan came up with Bitshares. We don't think poorly of Satoshi's for his early earnings because he contributed the first element to the set of decentralized cryptoassets; in the same way, we shouldn't feel bad even if Dan did have "a lot" of protoshares -- he invented the set that contains cryptocurrencies and more. We're at the start of something really big....and I'm rooting for Dan.
Just wait till the selfish miner (http://arxiv.org/abs/1311.0243) discovers protoshares...maybe he's got a chain 100,000 long that he started 2 months ago ready to wipe us all out!
P.S. -- I think I'm off by a day in the above...this week has been a blur...

Very well said. I remember those days as well. I am still rummaging through old hard drives to find my old Bitcoin wallet. I may have a fortune in there, or nothing at all. Hah. I too am a supporter of Dan's ventures, he has some very big projections and goals. And I for one have shaped my life around making goals that to many friends seemed unattainable. Yet where there is a will there is a way.

I have one FX8350 and many Core i5 2500k. The i5's out performed it, each and every one of them. From my experience in CPU mining the Intel CPUs are superior. I'm thinking of building a Core i7 4770k over clocked/liquid cooled rig for mining coin to see how it does. I hear great things about them. With PTS it may actually pay for itself overtime. Would be nice to solo mine with it using the high performance mod for the qt client.

What do you mean about Xeon 1230v3 for protoshares mining? It's Haswell, isn't it?
