I think there are enough data points here to do a little ciphering.

A very-long-term average I did some time ago of DC progress rate was 3.3M/year on exponent value, over something like a 6-year average. That figure, plus projections based on it, and detailed tabulation and graphing with fits, of the historical minor milestone data for GIMPS, are available at https://www.mersenneforum.org/showpo...5&postcount=11
The past few years the DC milestone progress has been around 4M/year.

I just went through a DC-per-gpu assignment cycle in February. I encourage everyone doing gpu GIMPS computing of any sort to do a DC assignment per gpu, or run memory tests on gpus, or application self test, or all such reliability tests, annually or semiannually.

Hi guys,

I expect that ll tests below 47 mio will be verified on 21 April 2019 ±45 days
48 mio -- on 19 July 2019 ±45 days
49 mio -- on 14 October 2019 ±45 days
50 mio -- on 07 January 2020 ±45 days.

Beating the previous primenet projection.

Yes! This milestone seems to be picture perfect. Almost no poaching and most of the exponents of the last 27 remaining on March 23rd have been finished by their present (at that time) assignees.

Ces't fini.

How do you figure that number? (not the 5,000,000th prime exponents but the 3605 count.)
