Switch to multi-threading for Chebyshev’s bias software
We started to develop a new version of our “4000 Chebyshev’s Bias Tester” that uses OpenMP for multi-threading.
Initial tests indicated that the test speed could be increased 4-5 times on a 4-core 8-thread processor that launches 8 copies of primesieve as a real-time prime number generator.
With the advent of affordable multi-core processors such as 32-core 64-thread AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ 2990WX Processor, the ranges beyond 1016 become possible in reasonable time without supercomputers and massively parallel processing (MPP).
5*10^15 test range reached for Chebyshev’s bias
We successfully reached 5*1015 test range for Chebyshev’s bias.
All results will be published in our repository and contributed to OEIS in due course.
Chebyshev’s bias test range increased to 10^16
We further expanded Chebyshev’s bias test range 10 times to 1016. At the first stage, the tests will be run up to 5*1015. Expected time to complete the first stage – August, 2018.
Provisional 50th Mersenne prime M77232917 supports Collatz conjecture
On March 17th, 2018 our “3007 Collatz Tester for Mersenne Primes” (the improved version of “3000 Collatz Tester”) tested the provisional 50th Mersenne prime M77232917 for being in agreement with Collatz conjecture and supported it. Continue reading
