Frodo, That's why I was hiding behind the couch when I said it

I personally think your doing a great job in factoring and would hate to lose you there. I know I don't support factoring enough, but IMHO that were all my P4's would be... Unfortunately don't have any

Also explaining the sieve how it works and the setup is hard enough, factoring !!!

I generally do try to push alot of commited people like yourself into the subprojects. Basically b/c if anyone is reading this board they are already a step ahead in understanding the projet. Also I'm sure we have alot of set and forget people running main prp so I don't think that effort will ever lag by my persuation.

As for running those P3's in secondpass probably the best place for them if you don't want to fiddle with sieve ranges.

We will also get a better feeling for where secondpass prp should be after kunago works his magic on the error stats.

I may be totally wrong but my guess is second pass should be in the 2.5 +-0.2M range currently.
