[QUOTE=robert44444uk;209931]I wonder what the Nash weight is?[/QUOTE]

The Nash weight for S 100 1323953181459703 is 8741.
Seems to be about the average for the E100 sequences, as I get similar values for the other candidates.

The second best sequence S 106 1061615018040269 (165/150000) yields a Nash weight of 9041.

Actually the computation of Nash weights using my tool fails for larger candidates (E>106) by getting a segmentation fault. Could be a problem with GMP, but I need to check this.
However, [URL="http://www.brennen.net/primes/ProthWeight.html"]Jack Brennen's Java applet[/URL] still works and can cope with this kind of candidates. Note that his weights are scaled by a factor of 1/1751.542.

A quick check yields a weight of 9241 for S 148 3763782581288275.

Edit: You can even use the Java applet for Riesel sequences by entering the k as -k (k*2^n-1 --> -k*2^n+1).

Highest Nash weight so far is: [B]9399[/B] for S 148 594730917690329.

Note, that this is the weight for n=100001-110000 (the usual range for the Nash weight). For n=1-10000 the weight is 9396.

Since I last posted in this thread i have found the following prps:

Not to bad a candidate, as not far off the best.

I finally got my second batch to 30K, there were 2 at 136/30000, one already reported. Will post the batch when I get the chance. One new Riesel record:

R 40210975621077 82 135/27644

I can now add 3019*3986252057*3*5*11*13*19*29*37*53*59*61*67*2^83365+1 to the list
151/83365

Ok: here is the second batch of Reisels taken to 30K. The top 2 I have already taken higher.

Sorry, Robert, but I had to kick your S 708477982733 58 from the record table:

This is now the fastest sequence to 169 primes! :smile:

Congratulations, Thomas11, you well deserve it, after 6 months of effort.

I think you should let yahoo primenumbers know about the k when you reach 170. Also at primepuzzles.

[url]http://www.primepuzzles.net/puzzles/puzz_006.htm[/url]

This will be an important record I think for prime hunters. This will be the first of the initial targets to be achieved when you find 170. The other obvious targets are:

180/any n
190/any n
200/any n;
200/<1000000
100/<3000 and
120/<10000

I'm still taking the better candidates from the 2nd Riesel bunch to 50K and in some cases beyond. Annoyingly I have 3 at 139/40000. Good, but no real breakthroughs. And 2 of these fail to advance meaningfully.
