Epic browser is supposedly Chrome without spying. http://www.epicbrowser.com
I've been using it for a while, and it works pretty well. Sometimes run into sites that don't like it, but most work fine.
I'm not totally convinced of Epic's integrity (they have not released source code), but I use it for everything but sensitive financial/medical/legal matters.

You could also use Chromium. http://www.chromium.org/

I figured since I have an Android phone with Google services on it, and I use GMail, Google basically has all my data anyway, so I use Chrome.

I for one welcome our new Google overlords!

I've set my i5-3570K to run First Time LL's on all four cores with 25% DC instead of LL. I used to do 100% DC's. I made that switch quite a while ago; worker #1 is working on a 57M LL and is almost finished, yet workers #2, #3 and #4 have been sitting on DC's since then and have more DC queued up.

On the other hand, my i7-5930K has LL on 4 of the 5 cores (P-1 on the sixth) and two of those LL ones have more LL queued up. The 5930K is behaving normally, but the 3570K seems to be doing 75% DC instead of LL.

The server uses a random number generator, so expect to see some variation. Note that 25% DC is the amount time, not number of exponents. Since DCs are about 4 times faster than LLs, you are more likely to get a DC exponent than a first time LL (getting 3 LLs and 4DCs equals 25% of the time spent on DC).

I had some moments of frustration when inquiring upon found factors, using http://www.mersenne.org/report_factors/.
It took me quite a while to recoginse that Minimum factor length is referring to decimal digits.
Prior to that I continually received nil results using base 2 measures.
Perhaps it is just a convenience for the search to count character length, but that is in stark contrast to how much of the work is conducted in this place, measured base 2 rather than base 10.
So I query the appropriateness of the current arrangement, and suggest that the base be clarified somehow to avoid frustration like I experienced.
Ultimately to see anything vaguely useful, I had to convert from base 2 to base 10, but that was not as discriminating as an intended base 2 query could have produced.

http://www.mersenne.org/report_recent_cleared/

I would vote for having it only display Factor Found results (whether through TF, P1 or ECM) when that is the FIRST factor found; hence "clearing" that exponent.

I find that the vast majoring of this report often is Factor results which are 2nd+ factors.
I would find the report a lot cleaner and easier to review if these were excluded.

I would vehemently NOT want any found factors suppressed.

By all means make a second report, or alternate view for this one with the 2nd-factors suppressed, but I would not want to lose this data for all newly found factors. I for one depend on this report (XML version) to populate mersenne.ca

flagrantflowers · 2015-03-20, 21:59

I would also like to have access to a display of all factors found -- explicitly including second factors.

Fair enough.....maybe a check-box to exclude 2nd+ factors?

This is the PC that is giving me the RAM errors; especially when I run High RAM users like P1 or ECM Stage.
I was *"led to believe" this assignment was running curve 2 so I updated worktodo.txt (with Prime95 stopped) and changed 3 curves to 2 and restarted Prime95.

Quote:

NOTE: *When the same core of the same PC is doing 2 ECM-Fermats on the same exponent sometimes the server gives both the exact same Stage, % (i.e. C2S2 98.50%) here: http://www.mersenne.org/workload

Well it turns out it had started curve 3.

Code:

Hand_In_The_Box	1	8,388,608 	ECM	C3S1, 56.40%	56	2015-01-27	2015-03-23	2015-03-24	1970-01-01	-16518

So now it is on curve 3 of 2 (Yes: curve three of two)
Now the web gives a historical completion date. 1970.
However, the Windows Client gives me the warning that the completion date is more than a year away ... I believe it was sometime in 2017
