GPUers, please TF my exponents!
 

There are several people doing extra TF on GPUs that are offering to do extra TF on exponents assigned for LL. I thought I'd start a thread where users could ask for extra TF and GPUers could reserve the exponents and post the results of the TF. If this becomes at all popular we can make this a sticky.

To start things off, here are 5 of my reserved exponents that could use a little more TF. Remember to post any reservations to avoid duplicating work.

On behalf of all LL testers, thanks!

Test=445194xx,68,1 (this exponent and 4 others are now reserved!)

Might be better to just add GPU support to Prime95. :smile:

I'm sure he will in due course.

This looks like a good place to announce the effort - I hesitate to call it a project - that I and a group of GPUers have embarked upon this past week. We are intercepting poorly TFed Test assignments as they expire, with the goal of ensuring that all are TFed to 69, and as many to 70 as possible before we return them to the server. (Obviously we'd go higher, but we don't (yet) have the resources). Currently I have the following assignments available:

33 exponents TFed to 68 (No P-1)
34 to 68 (P-1 done)
169 to 69 (No P-1)
775 to 69 (P-1).

If there are any GPUers not already involved who would like to offer assistance, please PM me.

I will gladly take all of these up to 72 for you within the next 12 hours :)

(I'll actually just set the upper bitlevel higher, so it'll just keep going until I wake up in the morning)

This is music to my ears!
72 bits should be achievable across the board [B]provided that[/B]
[B]the effort is focussed at the wavefront and not two years hence.[/B]

Thanks. I'll mark the original post accordingly. Post any factors you find. If I don't see a post, I'll assume no factors were found.

It is a MINI-project, right?

I'll take these up to 72 bits.

Another small batch:


Test=650000xx,70,1 (reserved!)

How do you get such low exponents? Just expiries late at (UTC) night like how everyone else does it?
Also, how many computers do you have? 5? 10? That's a lot of assignments.
