30.4b9 has an issue for PRP testing (but not until you reach the last 50 iterations).
30.5 should be ready soon.

If you got the assignment from the server and did not edit the worktodo.txt, then prime95 should know that the exponent has not had P-1 done. Prime95 will then use your current memory settings to...

Fixing RuntimeError's bug is actual trivial as you surmised. So, here's why the fix is extensive!

In a PRP test, when a Gerbicz block completes and there are less than 49 iterations remaining,...

The fix is rather extensive and will be addressed in 30.5. I've got a 30.5 gwnum library released for some preliminary testing. If all goes well, expect prime95 version 30.5 in a few days.

Weird. Let us know if the problem disappears in the next daily update (or do a Manual Communication). If it continues, we'll need to look at the prime.log file, possibly with verbose output.

Nope, my bad!

The problem is specific to 30.4. I will fix it in build 10.

This is NOT RECOMMENDED for the general public. You can work probably around your problem by setting "MaxRoundoffError=0.499" in prime.txt.

I'm puzzled on the selection of 5600K FFT. Do you have an old gwnum.txt lying around that is causing 5600K to be selected? Not that this matters, I'm just curious. A 5600K FFT should run just fine.

I'm somewhat stumped.

First off, you must be running a 32-bit OS as the 5600K FFT is not chosen by 64-bit prime95. Perhaps this is why you are the only one reporting a problem.

Second, I...

Prime95 tests 52955*2^198566-1 with a maximum roundoff error of 0.344 using a 15K AVX FFT. That's high, but no where near dangerous. A bit strange that LLR is getting a much larger roundoff error....

There are other sources of hardware error than memory. Thus, Gerbicz error checking is still beneficial.
