On 12 August 2024, 06:10:14 UTC, PrimeGrid's Primorial Prime Search found the Primorial Prime:

The prime is 2,765,105 digits long and will enter “The Largest Known Primes Database” ranked 1st for Primorial primes and 155th overall.

The discovery was made by Nick Merrylees (Nick) of Australia using an Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-9960X @ 3.10GHz with 64GB RAM, running Microsoft Windows 10 Professional x64 Edition.

The PRP was confirmed prime on 15 August 2024 by an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D @ 4.20GHz with 128GB RAM, running Debian 12.5. This computer took about 3 days, 44 minutes to complete the primality test using PFGW with 4 threads.
