This is a bit of a long shot, but since PrimeGrid's Sophie Germain Search is ending on November 15, would there be interest in continuing that search on SRBase? TPS has a bunch of n=1.7M and n=3.322M candidates that can be used for that search, and since SRBase already runs the TF subproject in addition to the Sierpinski/Riesel projects, I figure it couldn't hurt to ask :)

Nope, the CPU is only used for Sierpinski/Riesel Bases (CRUS). You could ask gd_barnes in mersenneforum to setup for prpnet servers.

I see. Would you consider running the Sophie/Twin searches on GPUs by using llrCUDA? There's a recently updated version at: https://www.mersenneforum.org/showthread.php?t=28796

Wasnt llrcude too slow? And you can only run it on nvidia cards. No experiences in this search and also need a lot of changens.

Just tested. It is slower (NVidia 4080) than a CPU.
