[/code]This won't be a surprise to some, but my cluster did not work. Even after I got the cluster details correct, it wouldn't build a matrix:
[code]
matrix needs more columns than rows; try adding 2-3% more relations
[/code]I need to make sure I wasn't using an earlier iteration of my relations file, since the relation count doesn't match the other machine. But, for now, I'm tied up with other things...

Thanks for all the help.

I finally got the cluster to work, but there is still one "bug" I'll bring up elsewhere having to do with threads(-t). I was able to shave 7 hours off the time, by using three machines in one of the setups: 38h52m vs. 45h54m with the quad core machine.

What is the current state of this sequence. Is it somewhat of a free-for-all or is there some protocol I need to be aware of?

Looking back, it looks like RichD yielded back in March '16:[QUOTE=RichD;428989]2 * 3^2 * 5 * 7 * ... * C141

I advanced a few steps but I need to get back to other projects.

Any help is welcome.[/QUOTE]It's been worked on since then as time and whim dictates. (To the best of my knowlege!)

Probably best to annouce any large jobs you run before you do them so you or someone else does not waste significant time/resources.

Thanks. I'll throw some ECM (probably via YAFU) at the c171, unless/until I see something else here.

Let us know when you reach t45; I'll help out with some big-ish-bound curves in a week or so.

I already did t45 on C171.

If wanted I can direct some Minions to do some curves.

I guess one of my machines did crack it:

ECM via YAFU va ali.pl while doing 2350 curves with B1=3M and B2=gmp-ecm default.
