Re: Mersenne: Somebody is joking ....
It's me I'm afraid. Was running some low DCs and had the Do Not Contact Primenet Server Automatically option set, then accidentally unchecked it and wham, it sent in 10 zillion results that I never meant to send. Worse, I now have this entry in my assignments list ... 511633 L 1 11803.0 0.0 0.0 24-Apr-02 01-Jan-70 Lumly2 200 v16 ... which I cannot drop because I'm on Team Prime Rib. Sorry for the probs and it won't happen again. PS.

Mersenne: electrical energy needed to run a LL-Test?
Hello! I was just curious, how much electrical energy my system here needs to run a LL-Test. Even if you don't let the system run if it is not used otherwise, it seems to be quite a lot. On my P-III 933 (WIN XP), Prime95 needs about 15W power (measured with an energy-monitor). That adds up to about 9 kWh for an exponent in the 13M range for this system here. That does not even include the raised power-reqs for the power-supply fan due to increased thermal load because i did not run the test a long time... Perhaps it would be interesting to find the system thats optimal for LL-tests energywise ;) Ciao, Lars _ Unsubscribe list info -- http://www.ndatech.com/mersenne/signup.htm Mersenne Prime FAQ -- http://www.tasam.com/~lrwiman/FAQ-mers

Deleting the prime.spl file will prevent those result messages too.

Prime95 ver. 22 tells me that Option Quit GIMPS will remove that selected computer only. You'd be able to join again without this assignment I think. Other assignments on that machine are affected too and therefore you'd have to fill the worktodo.ini manually. But check first whether 21.4.1 is working the same way. Sorry for the probs and it won't happen again. Which Mersenne prime did you believe not being prime? ;-) PS. Does this mean that there is a bug in the server code? I think in the past the server was showing assignments and cleared exponents only within ranges meant for testing, doublechecking or factoring. Maybe the server code has been changed. Mersenne primes already verified should be ignored by the server too :-) Have fun Dieter Schmitt _ Unsubscribe list info -- http://www.ndatech.com/mersenne/signup.htm Mersenne Prime FAQ -- http://www.tasam.com/~lrwiman/FAQ-mers
