No. I wrote a small program that extracts the exponents from the v5 server files that have LL tests done on them of which none have errorcode 0. You can check that list against the v4 assignments and you will find most of them are not being worked on. If you would put such a list in Lone Mersenne Hunters you could work on them with some other folks.

I will consider this.

Can you also explain why near the low end of LL testing another 100 or so LL tests appear available every year or so ... for example on page:
http://www.mersenne.org/primenet/status.shtml
the ranges 180x to 185x currently are mostly over 100 (they were near zero earlier this year) and I suggest that sometime soon another 100ish will appear for the rest of the 18x ranges.

Are these the same exponents you are referring to?

The server hasn't expired any exponents the last two nights, so assuming the script works tonight it looks like there are going to be at least 100 first time tests less than 33M expiring tonight.

I'm usually up at 2-3am EST when the script runs, so I could reserve a bunch of them for you (if you're not going to be awake then). Easiest way would be for you PM me your user name and password, so I could use the manual reservation page to reserve them under your account. If you're not comfortable with that, I could reserve them under my name and let you "poach" the tests through LMH. It might also be possible for you to put the appropriate lines in worktodo.ini and do a manual communication shortly after I unreserve the exponents to reserve the tests. I've only tried that method on exponents the server expired, not tests that other users manually unreserved (it should work if unreserved exponents go immediately back into the work queue).

No, really no idea.

No, I am referring to the column LLERR on the page http://v5www.mersenne.org/ which happens to be messed up today due to a formatting error, these are not the same as the ones on the v4 server.

That's around 19 cleared per day.

Leaves us with 5054 tests to do - 266 days worth, at least (we're slowing down).

 2008-12-12, 13:29 #43 rudi_m     Jul 2005 2·7·13 Posts BTW, Where can I download the exponent status file?. I remember it was available on v4 website but I cant find it anymore.

A drop of 420 since Nov 3.
I simply add up the LL-ERR and NO-LL columms from:
http://www.mersenne.org/primenet/

Again no longer having an assignment report I can't tell for sure how many of the 33M range are less than 33,219,280 but in the past it was virtually all of them.

Slowing down here too .... EXCEPT .... George just released all the low LL tests

As well he only assigns low-end tests to "preferred" CPUs.
http://www.mersenneforum.org/showpos...99&postcount=9

so there is no reason why this number shouldn't drop QUICKLY now.
