32M-33M to 2^60

Beyond · 2003-02-22, 12:44

If it is alright with everyone I would like to run 32m thru 34M to 2^64

You should not do any that are currently allocated to someone else in PrimeNet. There are... problems that can occur when doing that. If they're not in PrimeNet, then they're fair game.

I downloaded the nofactor.zip and they are from there. It was my understanding these exponenets are not on PrimeNet? Or do I need to check the assignments list to be sure?

32M to 34M is a tricky range as the 10Million assignments are from this range. nofactor.zip contains all exponents that don't have factors regardless of whether they are on Primenet. My suggestion to you is to do only 32M to 33M as then there will be no overlap. Mind you going to 2^64 will take a lot of time even on a fast machine so even the 1M range will keep you busy for several months.

I would suggest you time one exponent before you decide how much you want to do. The 32-33M range will probably contain about 26,000 exponents and on a P-II 400 each exponent will take an hour or more. So do you sums before you bite more than you can chew!!

Thanks for the heads-up garo, need to drink more coffee to put brain in gear before speaking up. Please revise to 32 to 33 2^64.

Great! BTW, in response to your PM, posting here is sufficient. Just let us know when you are done or when you decide to stop working on this range or change your assigment in any way..

I'd recommend staying BELOW the 10,000,000 digit threshold, or quite a bit ABOVE the current "highest assigned exponent" from PrimeNet, as otherwise you *will* conflict with those of us working that range.

35M and up should be OK, though if you do start at 35M you might want to work it to a fairly low depth, say 59 or 60 at most, to make sure you STAY ahead of PrimeNet assignments.

BTW garo - 33M DOES get into the 10,000,000 digit range - all of the LL tests I'm currently doing are 33,xxx,xxx

Okay, I will notify everyone when done. I will stay below the 33M range.

QuintLeo,
Beyond is only doing 32M to 33M which means he will stop before 33M. His last number will be ~ 329999xx . So he's all right!

Having had the chance to run the exponents for a 24+ hrs period I see trying to move them from 2^58 to 2^64 in one go is going to take a longer period of time than I thought

, so I am only going to run them up to 2^60 on the first pass. After that is completed I will try taking smaller amounts to 2^64, but will advise when ready to do so.

He he he! Told you so :D
