Multi-Factorial Search
 

Ken Davis has run a [URL="http://mfprimes.free-dc.org"]multi-factorial search[/URL] for a few years, but I haven't had any e-mails from him in a while, so I don't know if he is still actively running the search.

I am working on an OpenCL program to sieve multi-factorials. All it needs is more testing before I can release it.

If only I remembered seeing this thread last fall...

But I forgot to ask, and Multisieve'd... (and so did Fukui, apparently)

It still could be fun, for everyone! (It's been a bit silent in this thread.)

These were: 76190![SUB]2[/SUB] - 1 (Fukui + Multisieve), 100654![SUB]2[/SUB] - 1 and 123998![SUB]2[/SUB] + 1 (Batalov + Multisieve).[/COLOR]
