[QUOTE=fivemack;292177]You have done two orders of magnitude more work than would be involved in simply doing the sieving! A C129 is an 80-hour job, a single curve at 260M takes half an hour and you've done more than ten thousand of them - this ECM barrage is comparable to the sieving effort required for a C160.[/QUOTE]

Where can I see which amount of curves on which B1 level should be done before sieving?

[QUOTE=yoyo;292190]Where can I see which amount of curves on which B1 level should be done before sieving?[/QUOTE]

For GNFS, sieve to 1/3 of the composite size. For a C129 that would be 43 digits. To see how many curves that takes, run ecm with -v option. With B1=11e6, 40 digits is 681 curves and 45 digits is 4480 curves. Interpolating gives 2960 curves, so about 3000 at 11e6 is enough. Two or three times this might be justified on the basis of convenience.

[QUOTE=debrouxl;292189]I hoped to find the sigma through [url]http://www.rechenkraft.net/yoyo/download/download/stats/ecm/[/url] , but there doesn't seem to be a folder for Aliquot sequences...[/QUOTE]

Now there is a as folder with the result and the sigma:

[QUOTE=wreck;292181]It seems like the yoyo@home have found a p58 of the c129 with B1=85e7, and is it possible to show the sigma of the factor on the table please?[/QUOTE]
The era of NFS misses has come! There are now entirely too many p65s for c172-s, p58 for c176-s... then why not a p58 for the c129.

2k@11M on the c138.

2400@11e6 on the c138, no factor

The c138 has been factored as p66 * p73 (not by me... I wonder if it was also done with ecm :smile:).

The current status is i2920 with a c136.

Nope, I did it by NFS. A first try of such size on my I7.

Now we have a c153 on line 2924.

So far I have done 600 ECM curves @ B1=8e7, B2=9.7e11

And there is this polynomial:

I tested six polynomials with murphy score from 4.209e-12 to 4.472e-12 and the above polynomial had the best yield.

I am already sieving with this poly:

I expect to have the factors on sunday.
