I wonder what it would look like if someone happens to manually look up the exponent. Would it show the real residue? A fake one? Or would it say the exponent is still "assigned"?

Yeah, but all sensitive data there are wrapped in super-steganographically-safe encryption. I defy anyone, even with an NSA-style supercomputer, to crack that.

I don't think it would show any of these. Just TF depth, P-1 bounds, and "history" would be shown. But if you try to manually reserve this exponent for LL, it will return an error.

My GTX 580 started at ~90 hours. I'm running it on two 580s in parallel for residue checks.

I do hope you're running with proper "Serge protection." :P
