I do not have the exact numbers anymore but i will try to remember as much as possible.

I did the test when we were sieving around 120T (we are now at 160T).
I took 100 pairs in the 2.5M range and ran "p-1" tests on all of them.
Sorry but i am not sure anymore about B1 and B2.
Then i counted the number of factors and the time needed to find that on average finding a factor needed more then 3 times doing a PRP test.
Then i took a small snapshot at 3.5M (only 40) and found that the time moved to a little bit over a factor needs around two times a prp test.

So with beeing above 160T in sieving and with a factor beeing worth something between 1.6 and 2 times a PRP test i see no use in doing p-1 at the moment.

Thanks for the information. I will stick to PRP and sieving.

I trust the B1B2-choice of prime95 until further examination. So, if it says this number doesn't need P-1, I would let it be. It says so at the moment.
Let's sieve so that this remains like this.

We have a new best performance ever.:banana: :banana:

In the last seven days we were over 100 results every day on the llrnet server alone. :showoff: :showoff:

Look here for a display of the increased performace within the last 30 days.

:w00t: :w00t:

Edit: at least some of the typos.

It is because of PCZ. Nice graph!

yeah, the top end of the LLRNET range is at 2.65M!!! while the reservations are almost taken up to 2.5M

Wont be long until 3M at this new rate.

[QUOTE=Footmaster;81782]There is no way we will hit 1 million digits by the end of the year with out an influx of new users. Each test takes longer as the value of n increases. As you start to get to 3 million the rate of tests completed in 30 days will only be about 60% of what we do now.

Of course that doesn't stop us from trying :)[/QUOTE]

Well, thanks to outInder006 and PCZ, chances are good that we reach 1M digits in time. :smile:

[QUOTE=Citrix;73518]Milestones to achieve in the near future.

1. PRP all candidates below 2M
2. Total untested <1.5M
3. Sieve to 100 trillion
4. Double check to 400k
5. Find one more prime if possible:smile: :bounce:

1. Check!
2. Check!
3. Check!
4. Check!
5. Check!

:george: (I like this one!)



Let's propose new milestones:

1. PRP all candidates below 4M
2. Total untested <1M
3. Sieve to 400 trillion
4. Double check to 1M
5. Find one more prime if possible:smile: :bounce:

Your milestones depend on each other. For instance, 5. (prime) is necessary for 2 (number of tests in queue)
I like 3(sieve) , and think 4 (double check) is too high (low error rate), but OK.

A year or two?

[QUOTE=hhh;86827]A year or two?[/QUOTE]

Let's see. :wink:

I am with Mystwalker. We have had some heavy duty crunchers recently who have done alot to increase the LLRnet daily figures quite a bit. As we have just gotten a new prime, there is hope for these milestones.

My new crunching soopa-computa arrives tomorrow to help in the fight. I cant wait to see what these crazy new Core 2 processors do. :geek:
