Cool. Thanks for the update!

Searched to 300,000 and no new PRPs. Continuing.

The previous post should have been to 400,000, not 300,000. Completed to 500,000. I am now using a four core machine, but each test is taking 3+ hours.

rogue · 2017-03-12, 13:20

Completed to 600,000 and continuing. Tests are now taking over 5 hours each.

rogue · 2017-03-19, 13:47

Completed to 700,000 and continuing. Tests are now taking over 7 hours each.

*scratch head* I don't unterstand these numbers.
5+ hours for a test at this range sounds like
something older, maybe slow 1st-gen AVX.
Assuming >2K numbers per 100K range after sieving
gives >10K CPU-hours, yet you do 100K in a week.
What machine is that?

You are correct. I was mistaken. I just realized that my inputs are not sorted by ascending number of decimal digits, but that is not correct. This is due to how I split the file into four files. I'll let the current tests complete, clear them out, sort the inputs, then restart.

Now that I sorted my input list correctly, I can safely say that this is completed to 300,000 decimal digits. I'm continuing.

rogue · 2017-04-24, 13:24

Completed to 400,000 decimal digits with no new prime. Continuing.

rogue · 2017-06-20, 21:20

Completed to 500,000 with no new primes. I'm stopping. I'll post a pre-sieved file of candidates later if someone wants to take this further.

There is a similar sequence for φ-1 (or 1/φ as it were): A065868
Perhaps, I can add a few terms to it...
