runaway client?

[Keroberts1]

I've noticed the N increase for the last few days has been much larger htan usual. Are we in a low density range, has production increased, is ita statistical anomaly? Or is there anothre runaway client scooping up tests? just wondering if anyone knows whats going on.

This page (http://www.seventeenorbust.com/stats/userTests.mhtml) shows that anonymous (http://www.seventeenorbust.com/stats/users/user.mhtml?userID=50) has 155 tests pending. But with only 2.15 M cEMs/sec of throughput in the last day, that looks suspicious...

could it be that a prime has been found and this is eating up the tests for those Ks? or maybe 2 primes?

Well last two times we found a prime they were very good at hidding the fact. So my guess is it's not due to finding a prime.

The project page shows all k's at relatively the same level... in other words one k is not lagging or not being assigned. Also the completed tests havn't really changed much... I though an n increase of 10,000 per day was normal...

what are you basing the rapid-n increase on?

The only thing I could hope for at this point is the first pass time out has been increase so less tests are being reassigned???
