Doing LL tests may or may not include the pre-factoring stages that you are about to perform. Once the test has ran to 2^68 there will be another test before actual LL testing begins.

Subject: [Prime] Factoring on LL testing
Date: Sat, 27 Aug 2005 23:21:10 +0100

I've just started M30047287; I requested a primality test, and Status
assures me I'm doing an LL test.  Why then, has Prime95 started by doing
a factorisation to 2^68 ?

I guess this will 'only' take another day or so, but I thought this
phase would already have been completed by someone else before now.

Thanks
Jason
