aka "No time Toulouse".

CPUs are being assigned LL tests ATM which have been
TFed to the CPU's optimum limit but little (if any) more.

ATM GPUs are shit hot at TF and not worth using for anything else.

This may change in a few months.

Before then, get GPUs to TF more (say 5) bits on an exponent before
dishing it out to a nonGPUowning LLtester.

I am happy to know that the chance of my finding the next world
record prime per GHz day is second to none.
Clever?
No.
Get a 45M exponent at 0200 UTC, and invite someone with a GPU
to TF it to 74 bits.

Stop calculating "optimal GPU TF level" and get them TFing the
exponents (less than 54M) before they are dished out for LL.

GPUs aren't half-bad at LL tests....they are actually hot, just not smoking hot.....
