The ups include the fact that this morning a new ForEis (the original Dan-Bernstein-powered cherry and peach finder) variant, that I'm dubbing OversEis, for...
Thank you Daniel for breaking the seemingly endless dry run of Apples. Can we have 2 more in the next 20000-30000 range please, to put us back on target? Can...
... Congratulations! You ended the drought for the whole group! If your army of computers wasn't around to hasten that tedious dry spell, who knows what ...
... I'd like to first ask everyone to check their log files for PRPs. There's a client/server interface problem, which thanks to Daniel's PRPs I'm currently...
Due to matters beyond my control at 5pm EET on Sunday 15th May, my server will magically change IP address. The new address will be 83.143.57.194 Your...
... The change was lengthy and _very_ painful, forcing me to wipe out a 719 day uptime on the server. However, after about 4 hours of tearing out hair, it's...
Bob had it too! Both Bob and Daniel's non-submitted PRPs were ones with curious fingerprints, so perhaps the perl script is failing to recognise those. I've...
4 big buts: 0) we need to work out if it's a good use of CPU time. 1) we need to work out exactly what the testable range is 2) we need to work out how to...
... I forgot to mention that value for money is proportional to time/size^2. Therefore if OversEis is >=2.8 times quicker doing supercherries at ... OversEis...

I've worked out that I can properly sieve along fixed k strands in Phi(3.2^n,k*b^2), and therefore for the longest strands (k small), that's pretty good value...
... Frances will check Phi(24576, 14*b^2) from 339196 up. (That's strictly 100000-digits and above.) Some "don't blame me if you rely on it" info - I found a...
Latest client, as always, is without a version number in the files area. New: * Improved ABC file interface - it understands "ABC (24576,xxx*$a^2)" as a ...

I didn't have time yesterday to tell you properly about the sieve I uploaded. Its just like old DaPhiSiv, except that it also sieves Phi(3*2^n,k*b^2) for small...
Just a belated note of congratulation to Phil for getting a parameter, k, into Phi_3. I would not have thought that this k could co-exist with FFT-wizardry,...
Michele, one of the GFN sievers of yore, has reserved k=10. The current reservation status looks as follows: MG - Phi(24576, 10*b^2) from 350000 up. SH -...
I've just uploaded 2 preliminary OSX clients, one for MaximEis (apples), one for OversEis (super-cherries). They were compiles with plain GCC 3.3, with no...
Having a borrowed G3-based Mac portable for the weekend (thanks must go to Juha Seppanen at work for that), I have been investigating to see how far I can push...
Thanks to Mark Rodenkirch, we have some shiny new G5/OSX benchmarks, based on my new optimised code (5-10% faster than the previous program, will upload ...
Mark's reached the G5's FPU's accuracy limit and has changed to k=2. I'll take over finishing his k=7 range. MR - Phi(24576, 2*b^2) from 890000-1000000 -...
I hear that Linux Journal, one of the more respected Linux magazines, is now carrying an article (in their paper edition) on PIES. The article was written by...
Yet again, the exploding FFT pointed the way to a Prime: <<< Phi(24576,1642652718588) is Composite. Time=224.710 Info: b=1642659500503=(7*1)*484423^2=...
Greetings everyone, Due to the Linux Journal article, we have two new members: David, and another Bob. (Yes, we already have a David, but he's merely a...
In addition to what's on the project webpage, here are some things that might ease the introduction to the project. Explaining jargon, etc. In fact, these ...
... Great! Shall you be known as Harold [SuperMac] Carmody in this incarnation :-? Is the linux article on line, please? Best wishes for boldly farming Apple...
