[QUOTE=c10ck3r;293801]I just picked up 2 29M DCs for P95 and 25 69-70bit 63?M TFs for Mfaktc. I'm wondering, though, how long would a ~70M P-1 with B1=B2=5,000,000 on a Pentium D 940 (3.2Ghz, two threads in P95 running simul, 1843MB EWE allotted)? Thanks![/QUOTE]

We strongly, strongly ask that you PLEASE NOT do P-1 if you don't have sufficient memory to do Stage 2. If you insist on doing such however, you can get an estimate of the credit awarded for such an assignment from [url]http://www.mersenne-aries.sili.net[/url] .

Edit: I see you do have plenty of memory for Stage 2, so please let Prime95 choose the bounds on its own.

According to my AI heuristics, "c10ck3r" is more than 95% likely to be a certain David.

LOL... And to think I thought that that AI course would be useless....

Kansas, 2010...
I seriously hope you're wrong :razz::unsure:

LOL, no.

Well, whether or not it is useless, it is the 5% that won. The name is John, and I've got nowhere near as much "knowledge" (whether real or perceived) as our strongly-opinionated friend daveiddy:devil:

However, I would love to have even half of the computational power he seems to wield!

Close to nothing?

You need to set your sights higher....

That's what I operate on (close to nothing)
1x GTX 460 on the 3.2GHz Pent D 940 w/ 2GB RAM.
A P4? that does TF on it's 1.8GHz core
A new, quad core laptop running TF whenever I'm at the grandparent's house.
I think he probably has me beat. I have, however, found over 850 new factors of mersenne numbers below M1000000000 throughout my participation.

A GTX 460 is a lot more than davieddy has.

But at least I am partially sighted and drunk in charge of a brain.

[QUOTE=chalsall;293790][URL="http://www.gpu72.com/reports/estimated_completion/primenet/"]View added.[/URL] Answer: less than 200 days to Trial Factor everything to the new GPU levels up to 60M for every candidate not already LLed.

Wow!!! GPUs are just amazing!!! :smile:[/QUOTE]

With a decent percentage of this being taken up by doing the 58M-60M range to 73 bits, if I'm reading the chart correctly.

You are.

We could take [I][U]everything[/U][/I] up to 60M to 72 bits in about 106 days.

And so everyone knows, the report is taking into account that the 58 range is "special" in that the transition to 73 bits starts at 58.52M.

However, something to start discussing... Once we have effectively cleared out the "wave", should we race ahead of it, or come back and start going to 73 below 58.52?

Probably we'll do what we're now doing in the DC range -- some are having fun taking higher ranges from 67 to 68, while "Pete" is taking many candidates below 29.69 to 70 rather than the nominal 69.

That's laziness... there are usually less than 15 that show up under the cutoff and I normally grab 50 at a time, so selecting lowest exp to 70 is easier than figuring out how many are below and selecting them to 69, then grabbing the leftover to 70.

Edit: Would it be difficult to make the site do this automatically? I normally select Lowest exponent, since there is a lowest to 70 selection, how about the program ignore the factor to box on lowest exponent and give out assignments below the cutoff to 69 and above to 70?
