I’m looking for several volunteers to test a performance improvement to the PoW Solver in Creditcoin. Currently, the SHA-256 hashing work is executed on a single core, pushing CPU usage to 100 percent for prolonged periods. This enhancement substantially reduces the amount of time required to solve a puzzle by distributing work across multiple CPU cores.

If interested, contact me and I’ll show you what to do. It’s very straightforward to incorporate into an existing Creditcoin deployment.
