@Blago right - but a virus scanner ( I assume you used that) would rely on a known signature of the file(s) - how do we know that running it doesn't install something else?

@Blago what about the actual exe? Did you check that? I can stand up a vm to profile the exe in an isoled environment, I guess.

The code looks fine, but the exe he's distributing as a release could be malware.

RE: Filled up half a PetaByte. Now What?posted in Mining & Plotting
@ChuckNorris Half a PB? Outstanding! Very, very impressive. Now go find a wall and hit your head against it, really hard:))
You should have plotted AND optimized. It will take you an insane amount of time to optimize those plots in-place. More RAM will help, sure, but the bottleneck with your setup will be I/O. Lessons learned, you'll do better on the next go:)
