These are very close too. I propose a celebration for when they conclude as well. Bring on the wine!

Indeed...
This celebration is more appropriate for the next prime discovery!

It sure is taking a while for the last exponent- it looks like your anti-poaching lecture did not fall on deaf ears.

Also for the last few weeks NONE of the 22 LL tests below 33219xxx have completed either even though tests between that and 38M complete daily.

Are the majority of these tests just stragglers who have forgotten they are running Prime95 and the exponent just runs an hour a day and thus doesn't expire but takes forever to complete?
