Any kind soul running mfaktc care to help?
 

I'm about to LL M45275047.

TFed to 68. No P-1
I would be interested to P-1 it myself; (will this happen automatically?
Soon find out).

But would anyone care to TF it higher on a GPU?

If you find no factor, I'll make sure you share some credit if it's prime.
If you do, you will have saved me 2 month's "work"!

It should automatically do P-1, yes. If you don't have enough RAM to do a good job (ie, 300MB or more) then I'll offer to do the P-1 on it. I've been doing a bunch of P-1 in the 40-50M range recently. I have a machine with 16GB of RAM, with 12GB available to GIMPS. Makes for a great P-1 machine. :)

I would, but I haven't got a suitable GPU.

THX. I've got 1GB RAM.

Half the point of my inviting collaboration, was to suggest that
since ATM GPUs do TF like shit off a shovel, their most
constructive contribution to GIMPS is currently assisting CPUs
in their struggle to do LL testing. Since they may do P-1 and/or
LL in the near future, there is little point in finding "cheap" factors
above say 60M. It will be 2 years before the LL wavefront reaches
that point, so speeding up it's advance is obviously GIMPS top
priority.

If you haven't started your LL yet, I'll take it up some for you. I've got a test completing in about 40 min, or another in about 70 min, and I can move it up for you. I can TF it up to 73 in about 6 - 7 hrs.

Great! Many thanks.
It will start tommow afternoon, (although I could stop it if
you find a factor). With no P-1 done 5 bit levels should give you
a 5/68 chance of a factor.

I await news, or perhaps the server will tell me if you do.

If you release the exponent, I'll pick it up right now, and let you know when it's done before I release it back so you can LL it ... will that work for you?

M45275047 released.Is this manouvre strictly necessary?
Pick it up before someone else does!

The server is not letting me pick it up, at least not yet. Maybe I need to wait for a refresh at the top of the hour, otherwise, if I can't get it, take it back and let me know. I'll keep trying. I'll try running it without an assignment ... no credit.

Well, this really sucks ... as soon as you released it, it got assigned to "chicago454" for LL. Really didn't think it would happen that quick :(

Hmmm. But nothing lost - plenty of other exponents.
I thought they were made available at 2400 UTC.

Perhaps something can advise us on this attempt at collaboration.
One would hope one didn't have to be furtive about it!
I don't want to experiment too much until my current
exponent safely completes tommorrow.
It's just that the smaller the exponent, the quicker the LL
and the greater the probability of it being prime.

If you can get a small one when available, (2400 UTC),
you could tell me and I'll ask to test it.

Looking at the [FONT=Tahoma][SIZE=4][FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]PrimeNet Activity Summary page, it appears that the best I could probably do is one of the 1421 available TF's in the 58M range. If I can get one of those, would you be interested?[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]
