work
after P-1 factoring (you may even find a factor!). No more exponents without
p-1 factoring -> continue with first item in worktodo list (i.e. the old
work)

You could even make a shadow mprime install on your own pc that you use
exclusively to keep your mothers exponent alive. You could also set the auto
check in time on your mothers machine to a large value. (maybe even +
holidays (on / no comm) when you are there)

Hello,
if that what you describe is the problem the solution is obvious
If a client checked out an (set of) exponent(s) and has not returned it yet
just re-assign that same (set of) exponent(s).
It could also be that some user does this on purpose for instance someone

I have verified the possibility of a buffer overflow exploit in primenet.c
(used in linuxs mprime)
It seems NOT vurneralbe (so it seems safe to me)
NO buffer overflow is likely to occur.
Notwithstanding I am running mprime as user mersenne with virtually no
rights
and no shell.

at most and only a grace period
of 7 days (not 60). Let the user set the check in period to a higher
value only via the expert menu and
after results have been checked in. That way abandoned exponents get
released in 14 instead of 80 days.

keep slow machines in as long as possible
as they really contribute to the progress.
So optimal progress will be made by giving smaller machines small exponents
and larger machines large.

kept low if only one top list is made a day (this is the same frequency as
distributed.net and probably also the same as the seti statistics charts.)

times. It does not harm if prime95 takes 100 MB but it would be nice if
prime95 / mprime sleeps some time if a higher priority job needs the memory.
For instance if prime memory gets swapped out its process could sleep for 5-10
seconds.

this will get some exponents double checked early. It is caused by someone
not checking his/her exponent in, this is not done on purpose.
