So LLRnet now has 14 files? That's great. I'm just checking to make sure that there will be enough interest to process it all in a reasonable amount of time.

I'll post at least 20 more files in the next couple of hours...

Well, as for whether there will be enough resources for LLRnet to reasonably be able to handle that many files--Carlos estimated 4 days, at the current rate, before the five files that we started out with were cleaned up. Thus, since optimally we want LLRnet to have enough work to keep it going for a week or two without a refill, I figured I'd grab about 10 files.

That works!

taking 326.0 - 326.8

Taking 326.8-327.2.

[em99010pepe]

Taking 262.0-262.8

[kar_bon]

261.6 - 262.0 complete, one prime reported

taking 262.8 - 263.6

Within 3-4 hours I'll reserve the remaining files from 320K-333.2K to LLRnet server. With the 24 hr rally I suspect we are going to test something like 50 000 k/n pairs.

Wow, I hope it really is that high. It'd be amazing to complete the entire 320K-333.2K range in 24 hours. Be sure to be ready to reserve more, in case it's higher than expected. If it looks like 320K-333.2K will be finished, are you going to reserve 260K-320K or >333.2K?
Should the primes found that are too small for the top 5000 list still be submitted to Prime Pages for any reason?

If we run out of 320K-333.2K work, we should go after the top-5000 primes! We went a day-or-2 here without one. This must not happen! Having the 320K-340K range complete will allow us to report and complete ranges at Michael Hartley's site and 260K-320K is lesser priority. Between Karsten and I and perhaps a few others, we can methodically get the 260K-320K range knocked out over the next 6-9 months.

The primes that are too small for top-5000 would not be accepted. There would be no reason to report them there. What we're filling in is Karsten's awesome page for 300<k<2000 at www.rieselprime.org. By the end of 2009, the goal is to have all of the ranges searched for 300<k<=1001 show on the site as n=600K. In order for him to show that, there can be no n-gaps in the ranges searched for any k-value.

Personally, with the way we're going, I think we can reach n=600K on all k's with no gaps by the end of 2008!!

Now, I ask all of you...Wouldn't it be something if we could have all 300<k<=1001 searched to n=600K before RPS has all k<300 searched to n=600K for over double the # of k's and a project start date that was 2-3 years later?! That is a very real possibility!
