Reserving 736032, 736050, 736056

Done with 739302, 103 digits, 2^2*5*7

739788: i576->i965, size 102, 2*3

Sorry to be a pain. Hopefully, I can be helpful at some point.

I have aliqueit running on one of my machines finally. I have been testing it against 736896 and it has advanced a few index lines. Should what I have be verified somewhere before adding it to Syd's db?

Should I reserve this number and work with it toward the project?

(Should I leave you guys alone and go play somewhere else?):smile:

Take Care,
Ed

No, that's not necessary. Syd's DB verifies all factors when you submit them. Besides, if you use normal tools like aliqueit (and its tools), there is very little chance that it will produce inaccurate factors (whenever you start aliqueit, it verifies all factors in the .elf file before running the sequence). Go ahead and submit them.
In case you're not quite sure of a good way to do this, you can run "aliqueit 736896 -s 0" to submit the whole file you've got, or change the 0 to the first index the DB doesn't have finished yet to just send the relevant portion of the file, (right now index 669) or you can copy/paste the lines from the .elf file to [URL]http://factordb.com/search.php?report=true[/URL]

Well, that's completely up to you. :smile: I see no problem at all with you reserving it.
I would prefer that you be willing to take it all the way to 100 digits, (and preferably stop at a decently large number, at least 70 digits, that passed all ECM) and are planning on doing so at a decent speed. (there is no set time limit or anything like that, I'd just rather not have it be running on a Pentium II that's only on 5 hours a day, if you know what I mean. :smile:)

Worked well! I C/P'd several lines (669-712) and all showed up.

Let me see how this runs until someone else grabs the number and I'll jump out. I'm running an idle laptop that has a Pentium 4 2.4 GHz CPU, but only 512Meg. It did about 40 lines in the last two hours, but they are only about 80 digits. I can run it for around 14 hours/day.

Any problems with this approach, let me know.

Thanks.

I've marked it as reserved by you. If you don't want to bring it all the way to 100 digits that's ok, just let me know and I'll put it back in the list of available numbers.

RAM is not an issue unless you're doing GNFSs on really big numbers.

Thank you. I'll take it to 100. Let me know if I'm not there fast enough.:smile:

Don't worry, we're not in a hurry. There isn't another project we're in a race with, and we hope it stays that way. :smile:
