[QUOTE=Madpoo;403620]...I haven't tested those 55M exponents, but if it's getting closer to the wire on those and they're at risk of expiring anyway, I may run them and have the results standing by.[/QUOTE]

Well, I was getting increasingly unsure that M55079077 would finish in time. The other one by that same user might since it was a whole 1% ahead and assigned on the same date, so it might squeak through.

I ran my own LL test of M55079077 and I'll just wait to check it in until it seems the other will expire, or as a double-check if they do manage to finish in time.

(spoiler alert: it's not prime)

If the other by that user also seems to be falling behind I'll probably do the same for it as well.

The two 55Ms were generally progressing at a significantly faster rate between April 23 and May 7 than either the weeks before or after that period. If these exponents get another period of similar progress in the next three months, these should get completed. But at the rate of progress since May 7, I project the one that's farther advanced to complete with only 5 days to spare.

All 56M range exponents now have had at least one LL (or factored). The two in the 55M range are still (at least officially) remaining. M56931947 has completed.

Cool. Meaning we'll have another of those blips in the milestones where <56M and <57M are done on the same day. Oh well... it's happened before. It hopefully won't happen again since it was really just the grandfathered assignments holding things up, and there's precious few of those left.

There are 2 in the 58M range and 54 of them in the 59M range. I hope those expire or finish up soon. We'll be counting down to the <59M exponents before too long.

So, keep an eye on 58052513 and 58600229.

On the double-checking side, there aren't any in the 34M-37M range, I don't think. There's a couple in the 37M-38M range, but by the time we start counting those down, I bet they'll have expired.

tl;dr The new system is working.

Recently:

Countdown to testing all exponents below M(57885161) once: [COLOR=blue]116
[/COLOR]Countdown to first time checking all exponents below 58M: [URL="http://www.mersenne.org/assignments/?exp_lo=55000000&exp_hi=58000000&execm=1&exp1=1&extf=1&exdchk=1"]116[/URL] [COLOR=green](Estimated completion : 2015-09-22)

If I remember correctly, there are 6378 primes between 57885161 and 58000000.

Does the fact that 116 = 116 mean that all of those primes have already been checked?

So that both milestones will fall simultaneously?

Clever people these GIMPsters.

Amazing what you can find these days.

[URL="http://www.mersenne.org/M55027163"]M55027163[/URL] and [URL="http://www.mersenne.org/M55079077"]M55079077[/URL] are increasingly unlikely to finish before expiring.

The progress on those has slowed greatly and right now it looks like they may finish up in 2 more months (63 and 66 days), but they'll expire before then (at the current rate, maybe in 35-45 days).

I've run my own tests on both of them and as before I'll hold those back until the 2 assignments for them are just about to expire.

Do I still get to claim the moral high ground? I didn't poach it after all, by withholding my result. :smile:

In fact, just earlier today I did some projections on those 2 based on their rate of progress, where they are now, and the sliding "grace period" on them. Turns out they probably would have finished up in time, with a few days to spare even.

If it weren't for that I probably would have gone ahead and checked mine in. Seems like Mr. Anonymous didn't care, and didn't even have the guts to check it in as themselves probably.

I could figure out who the person is by looking at some logs... but I won't do it. I can tell that this person is probably going to check in a result for the other remaining 55M exponent, but I'd encourage them not to. I just saw some activity from that user looking into that one as well.

Let me just say that the original assignee, by my estimations, will finish those 2 exponents on August 31 and September 4. So just be patient, eh?

EDIT: I know for a fact this person is reading this thread, so... just hold off on doing that 2nd one. I've done my own pre-doublecheck and the original assignee will finish theirs ~ Sep 4

You probably know more about each contributor to GIMPS than anyone else on the planet, but ultimately no-one except the people themselves knows what motivates them and where they are "at". And, of course, they are indeed people, regardless of whether or not they identify themselves.:smile:

Yes, you have the moral high ground for not reporting your result before the original assignee finished. There is plenty of work for everyone, and with the expiry and reassignment policies in place there is really no excuse for anyone to poach other people's assignments.:tu:
