Preferably at the end of the 30 digit level queue after which it moves to the *end* of the 35 digit level queue, etc..

Sorry about that--I saw that apparently we'd already started a polynomial search on it, and figured that with all the B1=11M work that had been done, we had a full t40 complete which is plenty for this size number. Thus, I hit "stop" to avoid wasting the workers' time.

"ECM to high limits" already runs a number to 25-digit level (120 curves @ 9e4). So your suggestion is not very helpful (in fact, the whole "preparing" thing is useless once you've run "ECM to high limits").

I'd go with smh's suggestion, with an addition that smaller numbers should be run first before larger numbers.

people in general dont use "ECM to high limits" because it takes a long time because it uses only one core

What about inserting the new one at a random position in the queue? Then randomly rotate the queue every few minutes.

840 curves @ 1e6 with b2 9e8 = ~10% of t40
850 curves @ 3e6 with b2 7e9 = ~39% of t40
363 curves @ 11e6 with default b2 = ~53% of t40
we are now at ~102% of t40

Let's do a team sieve, then.

You can add 200 curves @ 43e6 (default B2), so it's going to a nice split!

that on it's own is ~80% of t40

Meanwhile, I've started the sieve thread. I'm not a mod here (yet), so please could our worthy moderator put in the new poly and remove the "proposed" from its title?

Thanks
