I just finished a Lucas Lehmer test on exponent 9822067. My PII 350 was
doing a iteration every .320 seconds. The next exponent it started was
103500203. It is now taking .421 seconds per iteration. I have a feeling
this is due to the fact it is using a different FFT. Is my assumption
correct or do I have a problem here. Would appreciate any information on
this.
As you can tell I know nothing about the math involved here. I got started
on this because I downloaded prime 95 on the recommendation of a friend. He
said it was a good way to stress test hardware. He was right about that!
After seeing the web site and what George was trying to accomplish I decided
to let my computers run it 24/7. They were on all the time anyways. I
figured they might as well be doing something productive.
