Call for reliable LL and DC workers...

easiest way go back to the quoted material within what you are quoting and re-quote it. of course you could also compose it by private messaging yourself the original quote and then replying to yourself with the other quote. etc.

So did we ever get one of those Preferred exponent? I don't remember ever seeing the 24M or 44M range on the available report.

I just did a query against the database, and no. G72 has never seen an exponent below 25M, nor between 40M and 45M.

Here are some ideas:

Number of DC reserved
Number of LL reserved
Max Number of P-1 reserved where N bit >= X (currently i think its 250 at 72 bit)
Any other system rules we don't get to see (are we still releasing 71 bit exponent > 55M early?)

Sure, I could put together such a page. But basically it's what's been discussed here already: 50 DC and LL candidates are reserved. 250 P-1 candidates are reserved (although we have so much P-1 fire power now that the cache is never full).

Also, yes... We are currently releasing candidates above 55M which have been TFed to 71 or above.

(Please note that because of a "Stupid Programmer Error", for the last 36 hours G72 was not returning all the candidates it should have been. This was why the "Retained" count was above 50. This has been fixed (and the programmer beaten about the head and shoulders...).)

I already have that report in the "Administration" area (along with a "Pledged" report) which I was planning on making public shortly.

Well, as a one of, I went ahead and grabbed the 15 exponents TF to 67 and the 15 TF to 68 in the 25M range.

I sure don't miss all that manual labor we used to do before GPU272!

Maybe you need to up your reserve of P-1 to 300 or 400 since all of them are goign so fast.

I guess George took notice of this thread (or just dumb luck).

They just started to appear! I got 8 42M and 2 43M.

I wonder if we will get any < 26M.

After further look into the exponent, they look like poorly P-1 candidates (my project for 2012!) bring them on, I was actually TFing to 71 a bunch of those eyesore on the PrimeNet assignment report, before I get to do the P-1 on them.

Lots here right now (opver 200): http://www.mersenne.org/primenet/

But if they are already factored to 69 will spidey ignore them?

Double Checks, of course, like I got, I assume.

40M DCs are really urgently needed.
Almost as useful as a chocolate teapot, or a 66 bit factor of 10^100.

Any reason why they appear in the LL table and not the DC table?

Also, lets not factor those to 72 please, with only 1 LL saved and low exponent it's even less ROI then 45M to 72.

[diamonddave]

Those new exponent aren't tracked properly.

I submitted a batch of result, but all those < 45M aren't appearing in my Completed report.
