[URL="http://factordb.com/sequences.php?se=1&eff=2&aq=763176&action=range&fr=2370&to=2400"]763176[/URL] got a downdriver at height 140. Let's see where this wormhole goes...

[QUOTE=schickel;253890]Releasing 733776.

i1274 c111, 2^2 * 3* 5 * 7. NFS-ready c106.[/QUOTE]Caught a nice little downdriver run there; it made it down to 49 digits....

My workers have caught several nice runs in unreserved sequences over the last week. The best was 789534, which added nearly 3000 terms and dipped down to about 26 digits.

Graphs of my favorites attached; in each case the new progress is from the first 100-digit peak to the end.

Missed 647832, which was a good one: over 2000 terms and down below 30 digits. That downward zigzag looked so promising!

[QUOTE=bchaffin;254752]Missed 647832, which was a good one: over 2000 terms and down below 30 digits. That downward zigzag looked so promising![/QUOTE]It's really amazing how many downdrivers have turned up in the last 4 months; and seemingly most within 1 or 2 digits of hitting the 100-digit mark (first time or otherwise). I wan't keeping a count, but I passed on at least 1/2 dozen to others here in the forum, pursued at least that many myself, then there are the ones you found, and still others found by gd_barnes.

It looks like the ongoing projects to raise everything to 110-digits will continue to pay off, along with continued probing of the status of the other OE sequences. I tend to run through everything on a weekly basis (since I have a simple-minded program that just blindly downloads everything, I tend to not want to hit the DB too much too often....)

Oh man, 256200 was so close -- down to 12 digits!

Another DB gem
 

397080 had a downdriver run from 104 to 99:

And another.....
 

277200 caught a series of runs from 108 down to 27; currently headed back up with 2^3 * 3.....

Hey, it turns out that bchaffin has some cores running jobs concentrating on aliquot sequence composites in the DB. So in addition to the work by smh, Ben's workers added 8 lines, stopping just 3 lines short of capturing the downdriver. In fact, if you find a wild downdriver in the DB, it's probably his workers that generated it. Nice work, Ben!

Yep, hence my absence from 4788 and other subprojects. 558348 was another nice run from last night: added 1400 terms, down to 20 digits.

[FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]648788 was another nice up-and-down run from a couple days ago.[/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]My workers have finished all the c100s from the unreserved sequences, and are starting on the c101s (there are about 2500 of them). Collectively we're making some impressive progress: in the last 10-11 days, roughly 94000 terms have been added to the sequences <1M. At that rate there are sure to be more terminations on the horizon, right?[/SIZE][/FONT]
