Coordination thread for redoing P-1 factoring - Page 5

I am doing some P-1 in the 15M range.

What's the best way to send them your way?

I'd vote for SFTP, I already have that set up. If you are okay with this, I'll DM you some credentials.

Ok...it may take a few days. I have several computers to collect from.

Semi Related I posted a patch to mprime that allows you to easily view the important information (B1, B2, percent complete...) from each savefile.

Which files will you send? Not the *.bu or *.bu2 files, right?

Correct those are just duplicates/backup save files

Just mXX999999

"Reserving" all exponents in
- 54.30 M, 54.31 M and 54.32 M
that has B1=B2≤730,000 and without a DC
for 30 days.

This shouldn't (and wouldn't) prevent them being assigned and/or done as DC, since they're not registrable. The "reservations" only apply to factoring——please kindly find another range, my fellow P-1 hunters.

But if they are assigned for a double-check, that user would lose his work if a factor was found... Please respect the reservation system.

No, they will not. If they have already started the double-check, they wouldn't lose it, just that it wouldn't be so useful (to GIMPS). I'm not sure about the behaviour of mprime in the case that they haven't started the DC, but it will not unreserve any work that has been started.

Since the previous range has less exponents without DC than expected, I'm now "reserving" for 30 days all exponents in
- 54.33 M, 54.34 M and 54.35 M
that has B1=B2≤730,000 and without a DC.

These "reservations" only apply to factoring.
