Was using 21.4.2, now on 22.9.2 (upgraded today). It only grabbed a few exponents when I started it, and it wasn't that the program released them, they were just re-assigned by the server. The trouble is, I have now completed one of these factoring jobs, and it's no longer assigned to me, which is quite annoying, as it means that work is going to be duplicated by whoever now has the number.
