1) Message boards : Problems and Help : Requesting tasks while I don't need them (Message 67573)

I have just set PG to ATI sieving and it's behaving very weird. It's sending scheduler request to fetch work every 10 seconds while I don't need it.

How about a pattern involving the spacing of prime numbers?

I just read an article about Zhang's Theorem on Bounded Gaps Between Primes stating he proved there will always be prime gaps < 70 million. Too large to make PG obsolete...

I got new ATI tasks today after cleaning and updating. Set resource share Collatz to 0 because I will have >1.000.000 points with the tasks I have right now. Will crunch PG to 7 digits first.

Can't get any sieve tasks again. Downloaded the latest driver, amddriverdownloader agrees. Idle it's 58 C/135 F degrees, Is this OK?

I also updated my driver and I'm running PPS Sieve on my GPU now.

Thank you, Pooh Bear 27

I mean the sieve indeed. And it requests work for the ATI, so Use ATI is checked and Proth Prime Search (Sieve) is set to AMD (ATI). But there is no work for the PPS sieve...

I want to set PPS LLR as a spare project for my ATI GPU, in case the Collatz server is down, but there's never work for the GPU!

I think it's about time to update the challenge series page on http://www.primegrid.com/challenge/challenge.php. Only 2 of the 6 challenges are linked...

The stats ARE there now, but you have to type the URL to get there. Would it be possible to create links to them?
