I don't see them in my Email. When did you send them? If I've inadvertantly deleted any Email in the last week, it's still in my trash and should be able to find it. I just now checked my trash and don't see it. I also checked my spam box and don't see it there either.

Has my Email gone bonkers? lol I'm still receiving plenty of Email from people; just not the factors files from David and Nugget here.

David,

Why did you say you were "Done and emailed to you" when your range is not done yet? (lol) Are you still sieving? I hope so.

Anyway, since you aren't done, all that I needed was an ETA (estimated completed date) not all of the files.

I went ahead and checked the files. The factors-a range of P=7200G to 7325G is done. The factors-b thru factors-h files are 85% done. You can now run the factors-a core on something else if you haven't already started.

---you can skip this fluff stuff if you want and go to the last para. that has helpful info.---

Since you're 85% complete on those files and I see by looking in this thread that you probably started on Jan. 3rd, that means you've been running 9 days.

Therefore: 9 days / 85% = 10.6 days

So, you should have 1.6 days remaining or a completion date of late on Jan. 14th. That sounds good assuming that you're still sieving.

---end of fluff stuff

Helpful sieving stuff for you:

1. Sr2sieve will show the date/time that it expects completion at the command prompt as it is displaying factors while it is running. That's where you could get the ETA without having to mess with the files.

2. The checkpoint.txt file will give you a percent completion. It is updated every 5 mins. That is where I got your % completion on your factors-b thru factors-h files. Here's an example of the checkpoint-b.txt file:
pmin=7431645640543,factor_count=2983,cpu_secs=654679.724,frac_done=0.853165,elapsed_secs=653410.920

The "frac_done" shows the percentage of completion, i.e. .853165. Actually, if you look at all of the other stuff that it shows, they are quite self explanetory even if you've never sieved before. It's a very helpful little file that allows you to restart right where you left off if the machine shuts down.

I hope this helps.

Hmm...something doesn't look right there. There shouldn't be any checkpoint.txt files if the range is complete.

Okay...I've looked at the files you sent me via email, and it seems that instance A finished its range, but then you stopped the rest of them manually with Ctrl-C at that point. The rest of them appear to be a few minutes away from finishing; check your email for more details on this.

Gary, if you already removed the factors from the sieve file, no biggie; even though David will be re-sending you the completed factors files for his range later on, it still won't hurt even if many of them have already been removed since srfile automatically deals with duplicate factors.

Edit: Ah, I see Gary beat me to the punch on this. lol

[gd_barnes]

Good, I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought "done" meant his sieving was done. lol

I'm only removing factors in fully contiguous ranges as they are completed so nothing above P=4050G has been removed yet.

I went ahead and marked P=7200G-7325G as complete.

Well
CRAP CRAP CRAP
It was no longer running when I got home, so assumed it had finished.
CRAP CRAP CRAP
I've restarted it
CRAP CRAP CRAP
;)

[IronBits]

Here's what I see now.
I guess it did the first part, now it's doing something else... correct? :(

Well CRAP! lmao Seriously, it's no big deal.

Do you know what caused it to stop running? Did you have a power blip? Anyway, that's only a few hours loss. We're still in excellent shape as you should only have ~2 days left on them.

What happened to you is exactly why sr2sieve creates a checkpoint.txt file. If you restarted it in the exact same manner that you started it to begin with, then it should pick up right where it left off.

Just to verify: You still kept all of the files in the same folders (directories) that they were in previously. Is that correct?

Now it says 21 January, when last night it was saying 12 January at 10AM - WTF???
Of course I didn't touch anything...
hmmm, maybe I had one of them dyslexic moments.... /shrugs and walks away (I know, no smilies) ;)
