I'm sort of late in posting this (I haven't been keeping up with forums since I stopped sieving) but I'd pay a good 25-30 $US (more than that and I'd have to start negotiating with my money-saving...

Or get it here !!

Actually, I found that if you take a screenshot right before you kill the program (alt-printscrn when you have focus on nbegon), you can use the last number it outputted and start it from there. Then...

I can put up to 900 k files on my web account, so I can put it up also. Drop me an email at _chaosworks_@subdimension.com (remove both underscores).

Why do I suddenly feel inadequate with my single 1gHz Thunderbird?

I can hear it screaming ":help: me!!"

Sorry for the rather simplistic question, but basically we're sieving to remove easily-found composites so that we don't have to check them for primality (is that a word?) later?

What do you mean by overflow the 6 times? Right now my client is showing 3653|74|2|1|1|1. Is any of that bad?

When ran SoBSieve (where I could see a visible rate) I played around with the values. 3.1 gave me somewhere around the 17000's. Same with 3.3. 3.2 Gave me 19000's. I just assumed that the equations...

New NbeGon runs at ~64kp/sec on my 1gHz Athlon Thunderbird (d/alpha=3.2). SoBSieve ran ~20kp/s with same alpha, and all I did was start NbeGon from where I stopped SoBSieve (actually to make sure I...

Sometimes the columns don't line up due to the use of tabs and the fact that sometimes the numbers are too big and overrun the column. If this is being outputted just for us to look at, may I suggest...

OK, so with SoBSieve 1.11 I should NOT change the alpha from 1? Or was that 1.10 specific? >.<

Hey I answered my own question about the files. I don't know if the info will be useful to anyone else but in XP at least the file writing is saved as it writes them. So in other words if you're...

I've found running on XP that switching it to normal does slow down the entire system. Also, the extra processing power garnered is, in my opinion, not even worth the slowdown. As dust said, ~95-99%...

Hehe... Yea it does someone else posted about that already. I forgot all about that!! Figures; for once Windows offers something that might be useful to the power-users and I forget all about it....

Well, A T-nano-something isn't a whole lotta something :D :p
J/K, really grats on the milestone!

I have the same problem with the tray icon.

PS. I tested the program on my comp, it does run much much faster than SoBSieve, so I would be really happy to see it's speed somehow meshed with the current SoBSieve. It finished 1/5 of what my...

Has your sieve been tested for accuracy Phil? I just want to know because I could run it for a little bit from the beginning of my range and see if it pops up the same things the sobsieve did. IE,...

I was wondering if there were any way to set up the Linux client to run off the Windows files, so that I only run one test at a time. I run a dual-boot machine (Windows XP and Mandrake 9.0) and right...

I've found 64 so far but haven't submitted yet. And I just rolled over to 130.3, and it's been at least 24 hours since I started. Probably more, but, sticking with liberal estimates, I'm looking to...

My processor is a 1 gHz Athlon Thunderbird (the ones with the 512k cache I think). I'll go ahead and temporarily kill the sb program after it's done with the current data set to speed up the sieve...

How often should we submit? Is there any particular moment, like before we reboot?

Also, if we accidently submit data that we've already submitted, does the upload script check to see if it's...

It has been done.

I've always wanted to say that; hehe

The team is Free-DC, with the hyphen right?

Seriously tinker with the alpha values. I just about doubled my original speed.
