Six more terms fell out. Now with 2^4, and a c147. I've done 1500 @ 11M so far and should have finished 4480 and moved on by tomorrow morning.

Finished the c147, and added about 10 more terms -- happily, ecm found 45- and 48-digit factors. Now at term 2602, still with 2^4, and a c162. I've run 3400 curves at 11M so far. I'll leave it running for a few days, but if ecm doesn't come through this will probably be the end of my solo drive.

After the last one, this should be a piece of cake!

In case it becomes a GNFS job, here is a poly for the c162:

Sieve specialq on algebraic side from 20M to 90M with siever 14e. Aim for about 84M raw relations.

It's online at aliquot.homeftp.org, port 8194.

NB. I'm running the older version of the server, so new version slave servers can't communicate with it, but there's no problem with newer clients......

Unfortunately I can't cooperate through the server, but I've done 4480 @ 11M and 7553 @ 43M, and about 40 (and counting) @ 110M. What's the right amount of ecm to run before going to gnfs?

My guess (rough interpolation) is for ~0.3 to 0.5*t55, so approx. 5300 to 8800 @110M.

I'm running on a 12-core Westmere machine @ 2.93GHz. 11 cores are running ecm, and one is running msieve (no polys found yet).

A single curve at 110M takes 521 seconds. Based on that, 5300 curves would take about 3 days. So far I've done ~480. I'm fine with leaving it running for a few more days.

Nice computer, bchaffin :smile:

Should a team sieving of this C162 be performed, the RSALS grid (14e siever, as usual) can participate.

That would be welcomed.
