Understood, thank you George.

This may not be the correct place for this comment, but I have a P95 feature request. P95 appears to run a quick benchmark prior to starting PRP work - but I'm not sure if this is due to a user setting somewhere or if this occurs for everyone. Could P95 also start work following a user initiated benchmark? Maybe a new check box in the benchmark menu that allows the user to toggle this option on/off?

I think the way to do this would be to start work and then initiate a benchmark. The work would be resumed after the benchmark.

Ahhhh, very nice. I'll try that next time. Thanks!

This is a result of upgrading to Visual Studio 2019 (from MSVC 2005)

MS docs at [url]https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/psapi/nf-psapi-getmodulefilenameexa[/url] suggest a work-around. I will try that for build 6.

Build 6 is now available.

For v30.3b5, same applies to Windows Vista Business 32-bit on Pentium M 2GB ram.
And XP 32 bit on Pentium M 2GB ram says it is not a valid Win32 application.
Will retry with b6 when time allows.

The [c]Test > Status...[/c] dialog can only display a certain number (depending on worker count) of assignments per worker, however I speculate that the ETA is [i]calculated[/i] for all the assignments in worktodo. P-1 ETA is slightly expensive to calculate. If I have a large number (hundreds) of small P-1 assignments it takes a long time to display the status dialog, even though it's only displaying the ETA status for 8x2 of them.

I always look at the dates of the libraries to see if any are new. I have not been extracting any of them with each new release. Perhaps you could mention if any need to be replaced. :smile:

I'm starting a new 100M PRP test in about 30 days. This version of P95 seems to be coming along strongly. Should I switch to this version of P95 when the next exponent starts?

Switch now. It should be backward compatible. (but make a backup just to be safe).
