Unless, I've misunderstood the math (not an insignificant possibility) or there is a bug, then the estimate should be spot on. I'm using Mihai's P-1 smoothness probability estimator. Whereas, P-1...

One P+1 run would be just like running one more ECM curve. The P+1 "curve" stands little chance of success just like running one ECM curve. But at least P+1 would be faster than the one ECM curve....

You also need to clear the Pplus1BestB2 option to get the quick probability at startup.

Now that I've fixed the crash bug reading stage 2 save file, I'll gather some of this data and post it here.

You'll get better chances with smaller exponents -- less TF has been done. I was getting 1+% estimates in the 4.7M range with B1=1000000.

We're learning about best bounds selection together.

I suggest picking one exponent and try a B1/B2 combination -- plus specify the TF bit level. Start prime95 and it will tell you the chance of...

Requires changes to LLR code.

The biggest change is "combo" functions, like (a+b)*c. This can be done with 3 reads and 1 write. Compare that to separate calls: a+b (2 reads, 1 write), sum * c...

Yes, nth_run=3 selects a random starting value.

Given the massive number of exponents in need of P+1, I recommend not doing two P+1 runs on the same exponent. That said, do whatever you find fun.

For the adventurous

Prime95 version 30.6 build 2 is available.

I consider the new features to be lightly tested. No need to upgrade unless you are doing ECM or care to try out the new P+1 factoring work.

I'm not even sure it will be useful to the let's get number of unfactored exponents below 20M crowd.

Caveat: I'm not a P+1 expert.



When we do P-1 on Mersenne numbers factors are of the form f=2kp+1, thus we find a factor f when k=(f-1)/(2p) is B1/B2-smooth.

With P+1, factors are of the...
