taking 75-80T

75-80T complete, 47 factors
[ATTACH]5581[/ATTACH]

We're closing in on completion of R6 to n=1M so it's time to get the sieving moving again.

Reserving P=80T-90T.

P=80T-90T is complete.

Reserving P=90T-100T.

I've calculated optimum sieve depth somewhere near the P=170T-175T range. It is lower than originally expected due to the recent increased speed of LLR/PFGW.

Any help would be greatly appreciated to complete the sieving shortly after we complete testing to n=1M. I'm able to sieve about P=1T per day per core.

I've attached an updated file with factors removed up thru P=90T in the 1st posting.

P=90T-100T is complete.

It's time to put all 8 cores of the I7 to heavy sieving use:

Reserving P=100T-180T.

ETC is ~Jan. 21st.

Afaik, this will be all the sieving that is needed here but I'll need to check that when I'm complete and have removed all of the factors.

Next I'll get hacking on continued sieving of the Riesel-Sierp base 2 even k's for n=1M-2.5M followed by Riesel-Sierp base 16 for n=250K-500K.

P=100T-180T is complete. Final calculations showed that the optimum sieve depth is in the P=170T-175T range so the sieving drive is now complete.

Thanks to all who contributed! :smile:
