[QUOTE=LaurV;330305]Can you please post the actual version of the graphic attached to post #421? (right when I got used with the format and I start to like it, you change it! :razz:)[/QUOTE]Well the graphic in 421 and in 428 are not the same data. The first is the status of remaining exponents, the second is the bit level of the factors that have been found.
Here is this month's version of the file in 421.

[QUOTE=Uncwilly;309800]Yesterday Sergey Nosov turned in results on 332250257. He took it from 80 to 82. Our first 82 bit number!:party:[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Uncwilly;316111]Oops, he did it again. From 82 to 83. That is a 2,948 GHz-Days credit!![/QUOTE]

That sound that you heard was my jaw hitting the floor. Can you say 85 bits?
:chalsall::anurag::curtisc::george:
Would love to have that firepower working on numbers from 76 to 79 or 80.

Here is the status report for the range from 332192831 to 332399999 (plus a bit more):

In the last month 126 exponents have been eliminated between 33219283 and 33299999.
Fancy picture below shows the change in time of average bit level for various numbers of exponents.

So I've read the last year or so of posts for the LMH stuff because it seems interesting - I had no idea you guys used to work in the lower ranges. What is the current goal? I see the graphs, but not having spent a lot of time studying them I see progress but not what the goal is.

[QUOTE=Aramis Wyler;336031]So I've read the last year or so of posts for the LMH stuff because it seems interesting - I had no idea you guys used to work in the lower ranges. What is the current goal? I see the graphs, but not having spent a lot of time studying them I see progress but not what the goal is.[/QUOTE]Ok, this answer may run on a bit.

Just to make sure that something is clear:
LMH refers to all of the TF work done way ahead of the LL wave-front. It also referred to TF'ing beyond the 79.3 classical PrimeNet upper limit. the 332M range is just a subset.

The current goal is to get enough exponents TF'ed (and P-1'ed) to a reasonable level before people pick them up for LL. There are a lot people that have pick up expos trying to win the prize for the first 100M digit prime. But they don't tend to take them to 77 bits (the default level for Prime95) or do P-1, much less take them to 79 or 80, like a GPU might. So they risk wasting 4,900+ GHz-days on an expo that has a smallish factor.

Doing a lot of lower level factoring is important, it is needed to eliminate exponents with the lowest amount of work invested.

The numbers and pictures are mainly cheer-leading and progress tracking.

Here is the status report for the range from 332192831 to 332399999 (plus other data out to 332999999):

[QUOTE=Uncwilly;326772]The 332M range is now at 59% factored.
:busy:[/QUOTE]As of today it is 59.65%

That's rough, .65% in 9 months. I get more and more tempted every day to start poaching assigned numbers in the first 500 so as to get the avg on them up to 79.
