For what it's worth, here are the 95^128+1 factors:

I've submitted these to cownoise and factordb - not sure if there's anywhere else they should be sent.

cownoise and factordb are the only places I would submit it to.

Thanks for the factors.

One more data point: the c169 from 9+8_638M.

Parameters were

Sieving took 21.6M CPU-seconds for 170M relations; max Q was ~138.6M. 165M relations did not built a matrix at TD=100.

31/31 is probably a little slower for sieving than 31/32, though not by a large enough margin to rule out further testing - might be worth playing around with the mfb bounds, for example?

I've decided to do 86^131-1 via NFS@Home. I've found the following poly (9 hours msieve-gpu searching):

The record e-score for 171 digits is 3.730e-13 so this is not too bad for a first try.

If Max could see if he can spin it up I would be very grateful.

Also is anyone interested in 24^179+1 ? If not I'll put it through NFS@Home in a week or so.

[QUOTE=chris2be8;549306]Also is anyone interested in 24^179+1 ? If not I'll put it through NFS@Home in a week or so.[/QUOTE]

I'll do it.

Bur requested a 165 params file, so I attach a draft here.

If you use this file, please report:
1. Did filtering work the first time, or did CADO bounce back and forth between filtering and sieving? If filtering ran multiple times, how many relations were needed for sieving to finish?
2. What was the final-Q sieved?
3. What was the matrix size, in dimensions or "total weight"?

I'm still not sure if 3LP is useful in 165-170 digit range; CADO uses 3 large primes starting at 145 or 150 digits in the default files, so I ought to explore it. One of these days....

Ok, I started the factorization. I think final q and the matrix properties can be looked up in the log file?

Should I have cado do the linear algebra or doesn't it matter?

Doesn't matter whether msieve or cado does the matrix; I use matrix size as a marker for whether target_relations was set too high or too low.

Final Q can be found in the log, though it's not in the summary. It's easiest to find by scrolling up on the terminal window to find the last Q sieved before filtering.

Currently sieving ETA is already saturday, 15th, but it usually increased significantly after a while. I report back once the factorization is finished.

LA is still running, but everything seems to have gone fine:

1) the initial 220,000,000 relations were enough, no going back to sieving after the first filtering
2) last q-range was 66,450,000-66,460,000
3) Merged matrix has 5579102 rows and total weight 836915933 (150.0 entries per row on average)

ETA for krylov is 8 hours from now, mksol will also take a while but I expect a total of less than 8 days. That's fast compared to the ~75 hours a C153 and a C154 took on the same machine.


And a question: How do number of relations, matrix weight/density and time for LA depend on each other?

From some posts it seems to me that having more relations allows for a matrix with higher density and those will result in shorte LA times. Is it like that? So increasing target_density will increase the number of required relations but decrease LA time?

Having more available relations allows filtering to work harder, generating a smaller matrix. Setting target density higher explicitly tells filtering to work harder, but even holding target density fixed you'll get a smaller matrix from more relations.

The catch is that it usually takes more time to gather those extra relations than one saves in LA phase. There's a productive amount of oversieving- when one is right at the cusp of building a matrix, a small number of extra relations has a fairly strong effect on matrix size, but diminishing returns sets in rather quickly.

My previous GGNFS/msieve jobs around C165 have had matrices around 9M in size, so this job was rather strongly oversieved. We should cut rels_wanted to 210M for this file and see what matrix comes out.

If you are interested in seeing the effect of the extra relations, zcat all your 220M relations out to a single file, and run msieve's filtering on the file to see what size matrix comes out. Then, restrict the number of relations msieve uses (via a filtering flag, see the -h option list for msieve) to 215, 210, 205 and let us know what size matrices pop out. I suggest a TD of 100 or so for msieve, but you might enjoy trying 100/110/120 on the full dataset to see how target_density affects matrix size.

tasks.qmin can be changed down to 10M. I target a qmin-to-qmax ratio of 7 to 8; your final-Q of 66.5M suggests the chosen qmin of 17M was a little high. Smaller Q sieve faster but yield more duplicate relations, so changing tasks.qmin to 10M should make jobs run a little bit faster because 10-17M will produce more relations (and faster) than 59-66M. Since this job ran faster than expected (based on your ~155 digit experience) and Q is smaller than I expected, you may have found a lucky poly for this job.

Thanks for your data report!
