Hi
Primegrid are doing a challenge - see http://www.primegrid.com/ and http://www.primegrid.com/forum_thread.p ... 805#114031
Check out the above pages to see which subproject to run, also there's a hack so that you can use more than 1 CPU core to do each task. I've just restarted and am currently doing 6 cores per task. I think I've got the right subprojects running - bit vague on the site!

Hi all
The 2018 Tour de Primes result page has now been published:
http://www.primegrid.com/challenge/tdp_2018.php
Sadly, it looks like no UBT members found a Prime
And it seems that only certain sub-projects were "counting" towards the above list, namely:
GFN-16, GFN-17-MEGA, GFN-17-LOW, GFN-18, PPS, PPSE, PPSE-MEGA
So, all the other "sub-projects" didn't seem to be taken into account, so if we do this again sometime, we need to make sure we set our PG Preferences to accept work from certain sub-projects.
But we did overtake Team China and TKWSN and we're in 9th place on FB...but only just !!
regards
Tim
