Proposed DC assignment and recycle rules - Page 10

I think I fixed it. Please keep an eye out for other anomalies.

I suppose it'll be 60 days until we know for sure... Good work as always, George.

Ok, we can conjecture that the problem is solved.

The PrimeNet Assignment Rules page says at the top:

Code:

Your account is not set to get the smallest possible exponents.  You can  change this setting for all your computers that meet the requirements  for returning results in a timely manner as outlined below.

Then there is a button below that, labeled "Change setting."

Two questions:

I have a number of computers working on GIMPS. If I press that "Change setting" button, will it change the setting for all my qualifying computers automatically, or will it let me pick and choose which qualifying PCs to apply the change to? (Some are doing P-1 work, others are doing LL/DCs but I may for whatever reason prefer to leave them doing what they're doing.)
Also, if I wish to revert to the present settings for whatever reason, can I simply do it in Prime95 --> Worker Windows?

Thanks!

(Sorry if I missed mention of these questions somewhere.)

Changing the setting affects all future assignments to all of your computers doing LL and DC. It does not affect any worker windows that are set to do TF, P-1, ECM.

You can still change workers to do any type of work you'd like.

Thanks George, that covers everything I wanted to know.

Based on the assignments I'm getting through GPU72 it looks like we'll have all the available Cat 1, 2, and 3 assignments trial factored to 71 bits today.

March 1, 2015 is coming up. Anyone who can run a query against the database to see how many DC and LL assignments prior to March 1, 2014 are still in the database?

Unless I misunderstand .... from a prior post DC recycling rules were implemented Feb 1, 2014 and Feb 12 for LL rules.

Under 57M there are 22 Assignments assigned Prior to 2014-02-14.
The next OLDEST is from 2014-10-17; 89 days ago....the 90 day expiration must be working.

Of the 22 older all but 1 are more than 1 year old and it seems all but about 4 or 5 are active and making progress; though some are still several months from completion.

None of the first 1,000 DC are less than 7 months old.

PrimeNet Assignment Rules...

Last line: "* Assignments made prior to 2014-03-01 will be given, as promised, at least a year to complete."
