I've fairly recently done a test, but that took ages (something like 70 days overall), as I've got a fairly old PC, an Athlon 1Ghz to be more precise. Anyway, now I'm doing supersecret tests, simply because they are fairly easy to set up, and I can now do a test or two a day.
I am considering what whether that is the best use of my PC, or whether Sieveing or factoring may be better. So that's what I want to ask, which would be the best thing for me to be doing now?
As I said earlier I've got an Anthlon 1Ghz, and will probably be running whatever you suggest every other day (I do Folding@home too). I was doing about 200K per second on the SB client (according to the readout in the client) with the current tests, but with supersecret with n at around 1 million I'm getting around 35-40K.
