Thanks for this Dave - I think it gives a clear perspective on running a DC project (or even doing PD/GPL'd code maintenance for that matter). There will always be people who are demanding and rude...

Thanks v much!

I've had difficulty sending in to sbp.pns.net on port 80 since Sunday morning (GMT)

The HT may reduce the impact of various background tasks waking up a every now and again. I wouldn't expect 4 clients running on a dual HT bx to work better than 2 clients though. HT helps context...

Keep a snapshot of the position and points for every team and user.
Everyones contribution is worthwhile, and what's the cost of it?
It certainly avoids the project looking like NEO.

To choose which of several inetnums, choose the most specific one - ie. the one with the longest prefix eg. a /29 (8 address block) wins over a /24 (256 address block - a class C network). In...

Any RPSL compliant inetnum object should have a country field containing the 2-letter ISO-3166 country code - but bear in mind that the object data may have been edited by error-prone humans (like...

Isn't this where the SOB becomes more like GIMPS where the next client will support sieving (as opposed to trial factoring)

The cardinal sin of DC is to lose work and leave machines idle.

I jumped the harsh gun of impatience... :)

I assume that when a prime has been found. that when it is tested for primailty, that a twin prime test is being run in parallel, or immediately afterwards?

Also, are all values of n that are...

It is the same symptom as the previous 2 finds.
So we can hope!

Those guys DO rule :thumbs:
Why not come join us?

Is K=67607 just testing, or are we about to go live with it?
When will the graph be added to the stats page please?

I've just re-read the other stuff and realised my error.
I was confusing this with something else that I also misunderstood :rolleyes:

Regarding Riesel problem, how much effort would it be to...

What is the highest value for n that is needed for each k ?
I suspect I could work this out if I had a working brain,
but it would be useful to list this next to the graphs anyway.

Keep up the...
