I'm gonna be honest with you, the challenge wasn't even announced here, the team is automatically added by BOINCStat to all the challenge. December is really one of the worst time of the year for us to do challenges, we are more or less all crunching to win the FB http://formula-boinc.org/, if some cores were added to NFS@home it was to win some places on NFS@home for the FB.

Je vais être honnête avec vous, le challenge n'a même pas été annoncé ici, l'équipe est automatiquement ajouté par BOINCStat  sur tous les challenges. Décembre est une des pires période de l'année pour nous pour participer à des challenges, la majorité d'entre nous calcule pour gagner le FB  http://formula-boinc.org/, si des cœurs ont été ajouté à NFS@home c'était pour gagner des places sur NFS@home pour le FB.

I'm a member of team SETI.USA and we don't care about http://formula-boinc.org/. I think our position is a consequence of the random crunch we do.

Well, we care.

Good luck for the final days. Hope you manage to stay in first place.
Back to the topic, any doubts about NFS@Home please ask and I'll try to answer.

Anyway thanks for all the information, it'll take some time to translate and digest everything :)

Thanks Carlos !

One question though : cannot be large factorization calculations be parallelized for GPGPU ?

This is what is currently done with GPGPU key cracking machines, so why does not NFS work that way ?

Pretty sure that this question has already been raised, but I'd be glad to hear your opinion ! :)

----------------------------------------------

Traduction

Merci Carlos !

Une question par contre: des grands calculs de factorisation ne peuvent-ils être parallélisés en GPU ?
C'est ce qui est actuellement fait avec des machines pour du craquage de clés, alors pourquoi NFS suit-il pas cette voie ?

Je suis assez sûr que cette question a déjà été posée, mais j'aimerais avoir ton opinion à ce propos ? :)

Polynomial stage is already done via GPU for GNFS integers.
For sieving, quadratic sieving, you can find a lot of papers regarding the attempt to run it on a GPU. You can read this master thesis: http://www.cs.bath.ac.uk/~mdv/courses/CM30082/projects.bho/2009-10/Archer-C-dissertation-2009-10.pdf
For lattice sieving, the one used at NFS@Home, I think there's memory issues I can't understand because I don't know CUDA nor OpenCL coding. A thread was started a few years ago in here: http://www.mersenneforum.org/showthread.php?t=12566.

I personally think that the code is so hard that no one manages or have time to port it to GPU application. I will dig more about this issue and post progress here.

Last 16e Lattice Sieve application wu received is at ~q=782.000M.
Last 16e Lattice Sieve V5 application wu received is at ~q=959.000M (second chunck restarted at 950M going to 1,000M: meaning going backwards from 1,000M until meet 16e in the middle).
Last 16e Lattice Sieve V5 application already sent all wu's from 1,000M to 1,400M (first chunk).

Overall Q range sieve of 2,1027- started at 20M to 1,400M.

Q range situation is this:
20M-782M (sent through 16e application, remaining wu's close to be done)
782M-950M (unsent)
950M-959M (sent, remaining wu's close to be done)
959M-1000M (unsent, will be sent through 16e V5 application)
1000M-1400M (sent through 16e V5 application, remaining wu's close to be done)

Second part of the challenge will start tomorrow, and about 2,1037- sieve, we still have about ~209k wu's left to be crunched, ~113k already created, ~46k in progress. If people can leave their machines for the Second Part of the challenge would be great because I think with the current rate all 2,1037- wu's will be sent to people to crunch.

Second part of the challenge is underway at http://boincstats.com/en/stats/challenge/team/chat/285.

2,1037- figures:

Last 16e Lattice Sieve application wu received is at ~q=801M.
Last 16e Lattice Sieve V5 application wu received is at ~q=970M (second chunk restarted at 950M going to 1,000M: meaning going backwards from 1,000M until meet 16e in the middle).
Last 16e Lattice Sieve V5 application already sent all wu's from 1,000M to 1,400M (first chunk).

Overall Q range sieve of 2,1037- started at 20M to 1,400M.

Q range situation is this:
20M-801M (sent through 16e application, remaining wu's close to be done)
801M-950M (unsent)
950M-970M (sent, remaining wu's close to be done)
970M-1000M (unsent, will be sent through 16e V5 application)
1000M-1400M (sent through 16e V5 application, remaining wu's close to be done)

In terms of work still to be done we are talking about ~179k wu's left to be crunched, ~82k already created, ~46k in progress.

Considering my machine (core i5 750 with cache set to 200, 180 wu's daily done) the leading edge of the undone wu's to the finish ones is about 11M without taking into consideration the repetitive wu's that probably are in there mixed.

Last 16e Lattice Sieve V5 application already sent all wu's from 950M to 1,400M.

932M-950M (unsent)
950M-1400M (sent through 16e V5 application, remaining wu's close to be done)

Lot's of aborted wu's being done on the range below 800M.

If you are only running lasieve5f application please consider also checking lasievef application. Linux users will run both, windows users only lasievef.
NFS@Home is hitting a moment where the two q regions sieved separately by 16e and 16 V5 are going to collide so it is better for linux users to check both applications. I already did and also because let's a lot of aborted wu's below 800M to be done. So I am going to run a mix of the two.

Last 16e Lattice Sieve application wu received is at ~q=921M.
16e Lattice Sieve V5 application already sent all wu's from 930M to 1,400M.

Overall Q range sieve of 2,1037- started at 20M to 1,400M.

Q range situation is this:
20M-921M (sent through 16e application, remaining wu's close to be done)
921M-930M (unsent through 16e application)
930M-1400M (sent through 16e V5 application, remaining wu's close to be done)

16e V5 application started another number (2,1049+) from q=1000M because all wu's for 2,1037- have been distributed. Only missing the left overs wu's. Also I only gave order to my CPU to do the 16e Lattice Sieve wu's instead of both 16 and 16e V5 applications respectively.

In conclusion, 2,1037- will be completely sieved by the end of the year.

Status of 2,1037-:

20948 wu's left to be crunched by applications 16e and 16 e V5 to finally close the 2,1037- sieve.

Status of 2,1049+:


Last 16e Lattice Sieve application wu received is at ~q=23M (goal to 1000M)
Last 16e Lattice Sieve V5 application wu received is at ~q=1046M (started at 1000M, goal to unknown, then backwards from 1000M until meet 16e in the middle)

Soon I'll post the status of 2,1037-. Post-processing phase started.

About 2,1049+ NFS@Home sieve:

Last 16e Lattice Sieve application wu received is at ~q=129M (goal to 1000M)
Last 16e Lattice Sieve V5 application wu received is at ~q=1095M (goal to unknown, then backwards from 1000M until meet 16e in the middle)

From now on I'll update weekly.

For 2,1037-:

The LA has started.

matrix is 67008555 x 67008732 (29495.3 MB) with weight 8405533452 (125.44/col)

linear algebra at 0.1%, ETA 447h56m at 10/01/2013 on 576 cores on Trestles at the San Diego Supercomputing Center.

For 2,1049+:

Last 16e Lattice Sieve application wu received is at ~q=323M (goal to 1000M)
Last 16e Lattice Sieve V5 application wu received is at ~q=1233M (goal to unknown, then backwards from 1000M until meet 16e in the middle)

If you guys can move your clients for a while from 16e Lattice Sieve V5 to 16e Lattice Sieve would be great. We need to crunch more 16e wu's instead of the V5 ones. (message to [AF>Libristes] Dilandau...lol...you're crunching 16e V5 very fast)

Can you move only to crunch 16e? 16e must go through q=323M to q=1000M. Lot's of wu's to be crunched there , 677 000 wu's.

Thank you.
