Actually Proth_sieve and JJsieve can read them in either order. It was the previous program that required the pmax line first, so of course everyone has continued to have it first.Originally Posted by geoff

geoff,
give it a few itterations it seems to correct itself.
It is fixed in sr2sieve 1.6.12: pmax is written first but reading can be in either order.Originally Posted by Joe O

should i use -D to search for duplicates?
When using the -j switch you shouldn't need to specify the -D switch, as per http://mersenneforum.org/showpost.ph...&postcount=394 factexcl.txt will be written unless -D is used.
It should work in either order.Originally Posted by Death
1024Kb is the size of the bitmap used for the Sieve of Eratosthenes which takes only a small part of the program's time, increasing it will probably only have a very small effect, but it will probably slow down if you increase it too far. The default is based on half L2 cache size, and the optimum might depend on what other processes on your system need L2 cache: on multi-core systems is might even be better to reduce the size instead. (Use the -L switch to override the detected L2 cache size).and with Using 1024Kb - maybe I should give it 2 or 3 Mb? will it go even faster?
