Can I take all of 890k-900k (95 sequences)? These go through fast enough that managing the reservations is a non-trivial part of the human load.

I don't mind. Might want to wait for 10metreh to OK it before you start.
If you do this, please provide dates (assuming GMT time zone) for starting and stopping each 5k section. And you should check each one with the DB to make sure that it's not already at 100 digits.

OK fivemack, that's fine. :smile:

I picked up the 'sequence summary' page for open-ended sequences starting at 890k, wrote a script to pick up the length and last term for each of them, cut out the few which were already past C100, and set 82 copies of my aliquot.py script running in parallel on my i7, set to stop when the composites hit 100 digits. The scripts use entirely separate files, chasing aliquot sequences doesn't use much memory, the Linux scheduler is happy scheduling 82 processes on eight cores, and it's just chugging away - the machine's not completely perfect at interactive response, but I'm much more inclined to blame that on the GPU polynomial selection I'm doing in parallel.

So the start dates for 890k-895k and 895k-900k are both today. No early down-drivers, and 896364 has hit C100 already.

It does make 'top' look quite impressive:

I will be out of office for at least one more week (and thus away from the box sequence 801402 is running on), and so I finished it off for the subproject today on my home PC. The sequence is still running on the office PC, and if nobody turns it off and it doesn't crash, it might be at size 125+ when I'll be back to office...

But, this one was a fun ride (adding 890 iterations), which bears some extra text. It might even prove interesting for the next time...

First, I picked it up on a slow upswing to 91 digits (i1348), mostly carrying 2[sup]2[/sup] * 7, with a few minor variances.
At 91 digits (i1470-i1495), it dropped the 7 and the extra powers of 2 and ran all the way down to 65 digits.
At i1635 it picked up more powers of 2 and kept falling until it reached 61 digits at i1676, where it picked up some 3's.
Then it climbed all the way to 99 digits (i1945), got scrared, shed the 3 and ran downhill to 77 digits (i2091) before picking up the 3 again.
This time, even though it later shed the 3, it finally succeeded in reaching the subproject goal. I wonder if there is another downswing in its near future...

I know this type of action is "old hat" to many of you, but I'm still a novice, and therefore, easily entertained.

In case I've been confusing in my interest, I am releasing this number totally.

Take Care,
Ed

You might find out soon...
I need another sequence because of 2 sequences getting 2^3 * 3(one also has a 5).
I will reserve this one because it has nice history.

Still searching for my first termination.
That's partly because i like searching higher than 100 digits as well:smile:.

When a sequence has a perfect number driver, when the smallest prime factor not part of the driver is large, the next line is only very slightly larger. The most extreme example of this is when a line factors as 2 * 3 * prime: the next line is only 12 (and yes I mean 12) bigger.

Also, you can get much longer stretches with the same digit height when a sequence has the 2^3 guide, which is like the downguide (2^2) but it can't drop sequences as much and it has more factors which will cause an increase, meaning that it has a tendency to stay at the same height. It can't pick up a 3 like 2^2 either. I think I have had a run of nearly 100 lines at the same height with 2^3 at about 60 digits after a downdriver run.

51/78 890k sequences now finished. The graph now looks much more interesting with the early-soarers all gone.

Be sure to get the newest file from the DB for that, as I've (very recently) been playing with that sequence to try out the new stop-on-large-composite feature of aliperl.pl, and in the process brought it up to 85 digits.

I did that - got the file from the DB just after I had posted.

59/78 sequences now finished processing: 1 termination, 58 at 100 digits.

I thought the 895-900 range finished today, but it turns out I'd forgotten to run 895464; started it now, don't know quite how long it'll take.

One left in 890-895.

Unsatisfyingly few terminations.

May I claim the 97-or-so sequences in 870k-880k?

Yes, every little (or big) helps, so I'll accept this, but I don't really like the idea of having the big guns take over a subproject that is fine even for lone P4s, so I will now say that [b]no-one is to reserve 10k ranges from now on.[/b] May I suggest having a look at Subproject #4?

OK, I will release this range (hadn't started anything crunching on it yet) and take a few sequences from #4

Last two 890k sequences (one in 890-895 and one in 895-900) finished this morning.

79 sequences, of which 1 termination and 78 at 100 digits.

I stopped at exactly C100, so some of these may be easier than others to take forward.

I'm running several single core machines and am trying to bring some older "anchient?" ones on line to play with. Should I direct my efforts toward some other area? Some of these sequences do complete overnight on my 24/7 machine.

One is 2.4G; the rest <2G

As I said a few posts ago, this subproject is fine even for lone P4s: we're not in too much of a hurry and we don't really mind about one sequence not getting completed for ages. Memory doesn't become an issue below 100 digits even with only 256MB.
Is G gigahertz or gigabytes? Assuming gigahertz, I'm not too sure how long it takes to bring a sequence to 100 digits on a P3, but this subproject is fine for slow but not too slow computers such as the earlier P4s. That's one of the good things about this project. :smile:

My suggestion would be to put no more than a quad on this sort of subproject for many days.
I personally run most sequences to 105-110 digits that i get from subprojects. I use subprojects to gain myself nice sequences and then run them high.

Yes, I was referring to GHz. Since that one machine seems to be running some of these sequences within a day, I've grabbed one of the subproject #4 sequences to see what it does. Although it is a 2.4 GHz, it only has 512M RAM. I have it running 24/7 with aliqueit at normal priority under WinXP.

It reached 103 but it takes too long to break a mid-c90 on my G4 Mac.
I can't get GGNFS compiled so I only use msieve.
Someone else can have fun with it.

That someone will be me. I've put the reservation in here because it is likely to go below 100 again.
Haven't had a downdriver in ages so this will hopefully be fun.

I have noticed that the db considers all the larger factors submitted by aliqueit to be "probably" prime when first uploaded. Are all the factors we have been uploading a good portion of the queue? I've probably added several hundred in the last few days. I can just imagine how many factors there are coming in from all the contributors.

I think it does a PRP test immediately upon submission, but will wait until it gets a relatively free moment to do a primality proof. It seems that certain automatic jobs like that are being automatically prioritized to some degree in the queue (i.e., they take precedence over the backlog of user-requested jobs), and in my experience they tend to get done within a few hours (though lately it seems like it might be a day or two).

I would imagine that Aliquot sequences contribute to much of this load; I can't imagine what else would produce quite that many new factors. :smile: But, at least they get cleaned up in reasonably short order, so they aren't just going on the pile that will never get done (and will surely be thrown out eventually since there's no other way I can think of to deal with it).
