[QUOTE=10metreh;195619]A :censored: C161. :rant:[/QUOTE]

This seems to be near the crossover between the 14e and 15e sievers....

pp41-factor of c161

I had completed 700@1e8 without finding that, which is actually quite unlucky (ecm -v says 644 curves at 1e8 for a p45)

Killed them and started again on the C145 from 2459.

Boy that factor of 3 just won't go away. I guess at this many digits the chance of at least one factor + 1 being divisible by 3 is high.

Hmm...if I understand this correctly, then it's going to lose the 3 on the next line! :grin: Here's the current partial factorization of line 2459:

Notice the 11: 11+1=12, which is divisible by 3.

(mdettweiler: you need to have *none* of the factors 2 mod 3 to lose the 3)

Next line has C145, will give it the same treatment

Edit: found a P30 (ten times) and P37 (once) in 16x125 @ 1e6

Which is why it can NOT lose the 3 on that iteration :sad:

I see we've now hit 170 digits... what is the record and if not this one, what is the highest sequence?

Ah, I see. Thanks for the explanation. :smile:

162126 (171 digits)

[quote=10metreh;195753]162126 (171 digits)[/quote]
looking at the database it looks like it is actually 173 digits
looking at the karsten's records page it looks like 175 digits
