I hope to find at least one more prime for k=105 until n=1.5M, I suppose that will give me half the points with need. Cruelty is testing k=59 on n=3M range, let's hope he can find one prime soon...lol...that would be great.

I have ~8 cores in 1.5 to 2.0M range, and 6 more above 2M. The effort is there, one of us just has to get lucky to push us over 49.

Unfortunately, you would need about 9 primes at n=1.5M (or just 3 around n=2M) to yield the same score as for one n=3M prime...

But the more we find, the closer we get.

Code:

RPS   NPLB   Primegrid
140    174     315   top 5000 primes smaller than 500k
353    397     205   primes of size between 500k<n<600k
223    283     380   primes of size between 600k<n<700k
114     74       1   primes of size between 700k<n<800k
 54     23      24   primes of size between 800k<n<900k
 47     23      14   primes of size between 900k<n<1M
 48      1      13   primes of size between 1M<n<2M
  3      0       4   primes of size between 2M<n<3M
  0      0       1   primes of size between 3M<n<4M

Nice work, henry. A much more detailed comparison than just number of primes.

Got one at 1.4M...

Looks like RPS will finish 1st in number of primes by the end of the year.

Carlos

Congrats on yet another k=105 megabit prime!

We are approaching 1000 primes in Top-5000 and the score of 49.0 !

Currently:
991 primes and the score of 48.9384

Thank you Kosmaj.

Anyway, by looking at the overall standings PrimeGrid will in three months or even four months be back to first spot, it is a matter of time and primes due to its tremendous CPU power available.
RPS has 80 primes between Top5000 and Top4500, NPLB 83, PrimeGrid 206 and FDCPS 35, respectively. Between RPS and NPLB will be an interesting fight..Reaching 1000 primes will be difficult but not impossible.

RPS is now with 1000 primes...lol

COOPERATIVE ALLIANCE FORMED BETWEEN SB AND PRIMEGRID!

Starting to smell like PrimeGrid is getting the monopoly of all prime hunting projects.
