All exponents are tested twice, this also means they appear twice in the 
cleared stats, so if 1000 1st time checked exponents are released for 
double checks the cleared since last sync stats for primenet go down by 
1000 and this is in that case not a major setback (not a setback at 
all), that figure goes down when database syncs take place and when 
first time checked exponent ranges are released for double check, 
strictly speaking the figure going down by a large value frequently 
shows that we are making major progress! (The number should more or less 
remain constant)
