Hi, I've been playing with the settings on one of my machines (reclaimed from the stalled SETI project) and found something interesting. It is a P5-200MMX running Prime95 24x7. However, when I set up Prime95, I indicated that it was only going to be running 6 hours per day. As expected, the machine originally requested factoring assignments. Also as expected, since it was really running 24x7, it raced through the factoring assignments much more quickly than PrimeNet expected. After 4 or 5 factoring assignments, PrimeNet started assigning double-checking to the machine. Now it's going quickly through double-checking assignments. Last night, I noticed that the PrimeNet server assigned this machine an LL test of an exponent in the 7,400,000+ range! My question is, does the PrimeNet server look at the actual speed a machine is achieving to determine what it should assign?
