C109 reached
We reached the next level, composites with 109 digits. In generell the should run longer and use more memory. But as usual there are always composites which can be factored very fast. 27 Apr 2012 | 22:12:55 UTC · Comment

C107 level reached
We reached the next level, composites with 107 digits. In generell the should run longer and use more memory. But as usual there are always composites which can be factored very fast. Keep also in mind, that the plan is to stop yafu after C110.

-131 ERR_FILE_TOO_BIG
Some workunits creates to big files. These are not uploaded by Boinc. I fixed it from now in all workunits. 25 Feb 2012 | 14:39:42 UTC · Comment

New style for Boinc server
Over the past weeks Christian developed a prototype of a smarty template engine integration for BOINC. This will enable projects to change the appearance of their website without changing the php source code. Every template file can be overridden by projects, creating an individual look of their website. It's even possible to integrate another template engine easily. This integration uses the BOINC translation system and has it's own fast caching mechanism.
Currently a CSS grid system with default colors is used but this can be changed if needed.

Please have a look at this new appearance and give some feedback on how you like it.

The prototype can be found at the yafu project:

Multithreaded App in Test
I test now a Windows 32bit multi threaded application. It uses as many cores as your system has. This is a preparation for composites with more digits. 20 Jan 2012 | 18:31:35 UTC · Comment

C106 reached
We reached now C106 (composites with 106 digits). Each level causes much more processing time. But always there are also a lot of workunits which are very short. There factors were found fast. 4 Jan 2012 | 18:26:35 UTC · Comment

Latest trunk version and "like" buttons
The server code is now running the latest svn trunk version. This leads to a no more working scheduler. Therefore the scheduler is now still the old one. I reported this problem to boinc developers.
Additional I added a facebook "like", a twitter and google+ button to the footer of every page. Now you can vote for the project or spread info about your stats, host and team to your social network. The buttons are activated with the first click. With a second click you send your vote. With this I respect privacy and no information is send to facebook, twitter and google by just loading the web page. 26 Nov 2011 | 23:24:08 UTC · Comment

Welcome Seti.Germany to there race for #1 in Yafu. The additional cpu power is much welcome since we attacking larger composites. Currently we are reducing the number of not yet factored C100 (composites with 100 digits). 28 Sep 2011 | 11:44:30 UTC · Comment

app version 128.05
Some workunits aborts after a restart if they were in the ggnfs part with app exit status: 0xffffffff. This version should fix it. 22 Sep 2011 | 19:37:01 UTC · Comment

yafu app version 128.03
App version 128.03 contains now also gnfs binaries. Gnfs will be used by yafu for factoring of larger numbers. From one size of numbers (depends a bit on your computer, but round about from 95 digits) yafu uses gnfs instead of siqs to factor the composite number because gnfs is faster for these. 16 Sep 2011 | 21:07:53 UTC · Comment

Running C80-C98
The previous range doesn't contain much composites without known factors anymore. Therefore the range is again enlarged to factor composites betwwen 80 and 98 digits. The list of composites which needs factorization can be seen in the factordb. 16 Sep 2011 | 19:04:05 UTC · Comment

Running C87-C94
The composits which needs factorization are decreasing and new are added to factordb. Therefore we are running now composites between 87 and 94 digit length. 7 Sep 2011 | 19:10:31 UTC · Comment

New style for Boinc?
If somebody wants to create a new css for Boinc we can try it here in the project. You would need the Boinc server sources to see which styles are available.

What is YAFU?
YAFU - Yet Another Factoring Utility
We are factoring numbers in the range of 70 - 110 digits which needs factoring in the factordb. At the beginning we start with numbers of 89 digits. There are ~ 6700 of them which needs to be factored. 1 Sep 2011 | 20:08:49 UTC · Comment
