x86-64: The miner can take advantage of AVX and XOP instructions,
but only if both the CPU and the operating system support them.
* Linux supports AVX starting from kernel version 2.6.30.
* FreeBSD supports AVX starting with 9.1-RELEASE.
* Mac OS X added AVX support in the 10.6.8 update.
* Windows supports AVX starting from Windows 7 SP1 and
Windows Server 2008 SP1.
Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
The configure script outputs a warning if the assembler
cannot compile AVX or XOP instructions. In that case, the miner
can still be built, but unavailable optimizations are left off.

Usage instructions: Run "minerd --help" to see options.
Connecting through a proxy: Use the --proxy option.
To use a SOCKS proxy, add a socks4:// or socks5:// prefix to the proxy string.
To use a SOCKS proxy, add a socks4:// or socks5:// prefix to the proxy host.
Protocols socks4a and socks5h, allowing remote name resolving, are also
available since libcurl 7.18.0.
If no protocol is specified, the proxy is assumed to be a HTTP proxy.
When the --proxy option is not used, the program honors the http_proxy
environment variable. In this case, however, libcurl 7.21.7 or newer is
needed to handle protocol prefixes.

Also many issues and FAQs are covered in the forum thread
