Remaining c96 splits as p46*p51 by gnfs. So, the largest factor was found by ECM :smile:

Are you working on the Brent tables? I am and would like to avoid duplicated effort.

Hi Chris,

I'm currently working on first holes from Brent's holes.txt file from about 3 years ago. I've made it up to 48 131- as you can see. Those are the only concentrated numbers
that I work on (and an occasional cunningham). (I also do ecm sweeps such as t20
for base 1001 - 9999 exponents up to 150). I send my updates to Prof Brent, but since
he has yet to absorb my last giant dump from Dec 5, I've been holding off on new updates to him). If you are working on first holes too, please update the factordb.com
as I always check there first before starting a new number and I send my factors there
as well. (My ecm sweep factors should be also available on my home web server
at [URL]http://myfactors.mooo.com[/URL] which is semi-regularly updated). You can PM me any
numbers that you are working on so that I can avoid them.

Cheers,

Jonathan

slightly surprising result
 

I just ran a C162 using 14e and 31-bit rather than 30-bit large primes, and am quite surprised how quickly it finished; more than 20% faster than an adjacent number done with 30-bit LP, and with only 162M relations of which 140M unique. The matrix is a little large (9.3M) but I can cope with ugly matrices; maybe I'm unusual in having similar resources for sieving and matrix, but the extra time running the matrix is less than half what's been saved in the sieving.

Will try a C160 with the larger large primes and see if I can find the crossover point.
