The new version 21? About 60 to 70% of all the machines (Athlon, Celeron 2,
Pentium 3)  +25% speed, the (still unknown number of) P4 +200%???

Mersenne: gimps performance

2001-09-27 Thread Spike Jones

I have been tracking the daily performance of GIMPS for
some time.  I predicted what we are seeing this week: a
surge in performance of Primenet/GIMPS which I think
is due to students returning to campus and starting
up their machines.  We saw this last year right at around
26-28 September.

Many students, those on the semester system, started back
several weeks ago, but I think there are far more college
campuses on the quarter system these days.  Can anyone
suggest an alternative reason why we suddenly crashed
thru the 2 teraflops mark?  The college students in the
fall return with the latest and greatest processors, so
they have an impact out of proportion to their actual
numbers.  spike

Mersenne: Odd warning in mlucas .stat file ?

2001-09-27 Thread Alex Phillips

Dear List,
I recently updated my E450 running Mlucas to version 2.7b, using Bill 
Rea's precompiled version from Ernst's website. I'm attempting to use the 
mlcuas.cfg file which comes in this tarball, but I get the following error
in my p.stat file :-

Restarting M(12xx ) at iteration  6484000
   WARN: radix set -1  not available - using defaults.
   Using complex FFT radices 10 32 32 32
M( 12xx ) iteration =  6486000 clocks = 00:14:16.236. 
Res64:36B6CB8618DD551D
   WARN: radix set -1  not available - using defaults.
   Using complex FFT radices 10 32 32 32

Can anyone explain what this means ?

I am using v2.7b on an alpha box with no problems, and a very nice speed 
increase, so would like to fix this if possible.

Yours hopefully,

Alex Phillips
