Hello group, thank you all for the factorizations, we may start countdown to another milestone of 1300 composites :-) http://xyyxf.at.tut.by/status.html#0 Best...
Showing a SQL connection error for several days now. I poked around the forum over there but my (almost nonexistent) German is not up to the task. Just curious...

As I understand it, the usual rule of thumb prior to factoring a composite using NFS techniques is to run some ECM first, up to the level of 2/9 of GNFS or 2/7...
Hi Sean, ... Rather, 2/7 of GNFS difficulty or 2/9 of SNFS difficulty :) ... I think I've also seen that on MersenneForum, probably mostly for small numbers...
Thanks for clarifying the rule Lionel. Makes my example somewhat moot... With my environment, t50 is readily reached, and t55 can be accomplished in 6-8 weeks...
Hello group, there are no more "wanted" composites since there's a better way to focus on some numbers: ECM work. The pages are updated according to the new...
Sorry to be a complete n00b, but I'm not sure I understand the new process. Are you looking for individual contributors to primarily run ECM? If so, to what...
Hello, there is currently a race ongoing on yoyo@home where the largest teams are running yoyo@home. To keep the server stable and get less work requests from...
Hello Sean, Are you looking for individual contributors to primarily run ECM? If so, to what level of B1? Or continue to use NFS on composites which have...
Ok thanks. It seems the "wanted" numbers list is an idea whose time has passed. Eliminating it doesn't change my approach very much. Do you object to continued...
