Gary, were we planning to continue this one up to 300K?

Oh, I'm not sure. Is the sieving sufficient for that high? I sieved it to P=7T but can't remember if I anticipated breaking off n=200K-300K when computing the optimum depth.

Regardless, for the time being, I'll move my machines to another effort. I can only stomach the real long tests for a few weeks.

Hmm...I didn't do any calculations regarding optimal depth, so I don't know. I just sort of assumed that we'd keep going for a while before doing any more sieiving.

Max,

After a quick check, I determined that we had sieved this far enough for testing to n=300K. We'll need more sieving after that. At your leisure, please load up n=250K-300K and update the first post accordingly.

Thanks,
Gary

Okay, all loaded up.

Just to give everyone a heads-up:

At this time, I am getting ready to upgrade the port 1300 PRPnet server to version 3.2.6; at this time, it is the only one of our servers that's still on 2.4.6. Since Mathew Steine has been the only regular contributor on that server of late, I've sent him a PM informing him of the pending upgrade; I'll wait until I've received word from him that he's all set with the new client to upgrade the server.

The upgrade is now complete and appears to have gone smoothly. Hey, if anyone else out there wants to give a hand on this server, it would be greatly appreciated!

The server is almost at n=300K, so I'm going to go ahead and load in 300K-350K. I was going to wait until Gary got back from his trip, but he's two days overdue and the server's about to dry.

Note that this new sieve file is sieved to the much more optimal depth of p=5T (rather than 700G as the old one was), so this should go at least a little faster.

Mathew · 2010-07-26, 14:49

What? The last time I checked (about 5 hours ago) there were still ~50 tests left and that should take me about 2 days to complete. That should be plenty until Gary returns. Unless of course other people grab some tasks.

I thought after it reached 300k we would switch to a new base (my suggestion is R24 110's at 50K with a decent sieve file to 100K)

Hmm, I guess you're right...I hadn't done any hard calculations on how long it would take you to polish off n<300K so that was just a rough guess.

Gary and I had discussed the possibility of switching to S26 (3 k's at 300K) when S22 was finished up to 300K. However, in his absense I figured the safest bet was to just load in the next S22 range. Note that until we actually cross the 300K boundary, I can remove n>300K from the server with a minimum of hassle. Hmm...okay, let's do that. I've removed all n>300K from the server now, so it's back to the way it was before I loaded any more work in.

Assuming Gary comes back before the server actually dries, we can discuss with him what to load in there next. If not, then we can possibly load in a small amount of R24 (50K-60K, maybe) to hold it over until he does.

Sorry. I'm just now getting back on after a lot of organization and clean up between my 2 planned out-of-town trips. I'm leaving Weds. again and will be gone until the following Thurs. For the upcoming trip, I will be on every day for about an hour or so. I had no access on my last trip.

My preference is to load in S26 for n=250K-300K. The idea behind this drive has been to "catch up" some bases with their neighbor bases that have similar #'s of k's remaining. Looked at in that way, S26 with only 3 k's remaining is a higher priority than S22 for n>300K.

I had actually observered this server not long after I got back early Saturday and figured that it would dry sometime late Tuesday. I'm glad that Max decided to subsequently delete n>300K.

Max and Matthew, are you OK with S26 for n=250K-300K? Matthew, I do not recommend smaller tests such as R24 for a PRPnet server because the overhead time associated with the sending and returning of pairs is not worth it for shorter tests. Mark had mentioned that previously.

Max, since Matthew has been the only one on here for a while, if he would really like to do S22 for n>300K, then go ahead and load it for n=300K-350K instead of S26. BUT...do you actually have an S22 file for n=300K-500K sieved to P=50T? I do not remember sending that to you and we definitely don't want a file only sieved to P=7T loaded in there.

I'll check for a response to this in a few hours. If I need to send the next S22 file to Max, I will at that time. But other than this, this is all that I will have time to respond to until very late today including PMs and Emails. I'll have time for a full-fledged response to everything on Tuesday.

Gary
