Is it just me (not being observant enough) or is it raining SGS primes recently?

Well, not for me.
Here, it seems more like a drought, lol

Van Zimmerman is crunching SGS and might be taking them all.
Lol. :)
No, I've been noticing for example zunewantan got 6 or 7 in the one day a few days ago and they seem to still falling regularly since. Maybe we're in a sweet spot at present.

Crunching small WU's just before a challenge starts makes it easier to avoid:
- wasting time sitting idle waiting for the challenge start time
- crossing the challenge start time while crunching a long WU and having to wait it finish.

Wow.

Maybe one of those slips through to me, ha

My task page shows ~20 000 SGS.
Since those are results in last 2 days, they have not been purge from DB so the number should be pretty accurate.

I only got one recently and that was almost two weeks ago. My cpu power pales in comparison to that of zunewantan and Honza. | |

Yes I got one too about a week ago, my first took 58000 wus, second took 20,000 but I'm the same, not much cpu power and not all on sgs either so I guess that's to be expected :)

Indeed. I didn't read carefully enough.
Congrats to VZ, then.

I think my strategy of posting "its been a while" to induce a prime has finally worked! | |

Funny really, just before each CPU challenge there's a (consequential) mini challenge of SGS. :)
