Automated primality testing with LLRnet for CRUS

Primes all over the place!!!
How the heck did they miss so many?

Stats goodness: http://www.rieselprime.org/nplb/NPLB_Scoring.htm

Sometimes primes are miss, this case a few k's are being double-check, that's why you have the confirmed primes, other's k's have never been tested. Sometimes people just start searching for big primes and leave the lower ranges to process, they start at a higher n, it's like starting one thing from the middle and not from the beginning...so many variables.

Detailed Search Information:
At first there are three different ranges for 400 < k < 1001 for searching with the following conditions:

* 333200 < n < 600000 to find many Top-5000 primes as possible (Forum Team Drive #1)
* 320000 < n < 333200 to fill the n = 20k (320k to 340k) chunk for reporting primes to PrimeSearch (Forum Team Drive #2)
* 260000 < n < 320000 to fill the lowest untested range at PrimeSearch (Forum Team Drive #2)

The whole range from n = 260000 to 600000 was presieved up to p = 5 T).

After cleaning 2nd goal, I'll put Top 5000 candidates into the server but I'll put my machines manually on 3rd goal.

Thanks Beyond for joining us.

Anything math related is good, your welcome.

1 question, what is the limit for cache size? set at 10 ATM, but runs thru them pretty quickly.

I noticed it uploads as soon as it finishes a wu, so I really don't think a cache is helpful.
Unless you want to make sure you get more WUs to work on than anyone else has in their cache,
to ensure you complete more work than anyone else, after the server runs out of WUs to hand out.

Right!

In a word "Comcast". (read as being down 30% to 40% of the time) So lost processing time on a regular basis if no cache.
