Monst has a few, and Anonymous has a few more.

Yeah, two weeks out seems reasonable.

Look forward to putting this to bed.

Just so everyone knows, AnonUser has just submitted the last batch of DCTF work!

Thanks for all the cycles everyone. This was a multi-year effort by many, many people!

And that user switched back to his previous TF work to bring 875M to 80 bits, he reported the next 7 factors in that range again. here.

Too sad he doesn't continue with the work valueable for the upcoming future.

Like helping to take all of the first 4000 exponents in the 100M digit range up to a suitable level.

That range is so arbitrary. I wonder what the reason could be.

I am very glad DCTF is done. If I could only get consistent temperatures in Ohio I would be contributing a lot more to LLTF, or maybe 100M.

Right now I've actually been spending some effort just-in-time factoring my own 100M candidates...

At least Anonymous is still contributing to the project :)

Or help clearing the remaining few @ 62 & 63 bits in the 0 - 1 M range...

Those are all between 0 and 100 k, outside of the GPU range.

Depends on the mfaktc version you use. Older versions can go down to to 2K.
Not very efficient, but still way more efficient than CPU TFing.

As John Lennon would say: "you may say I´m a lunatic, but I´m not the only one..."
