I was looking at the Top Prime Finders list this morning...

It came to my attention that Rick Reynolds is only a double checker on 2.5% of the primes he has found. I couldn't find anyone even remotely close to that (except myself... at 2.9%)...
(this assumes you've found more than 4 primes)

(I may have done that math wrong... I perhaps should have added initial primes plus doublecheck primes, and then divided total primes into # of double checks..)... I just divided initial primes into double checks.... (and it's too early for me to google the correct math formula..) 6:14 am here in the Ozarks and I'm only on my 2nd cup of coffee...

Well done Rick!

I correct myself.... Using my original math formula...

Tarmo Ives (another AtP mate!!) has a devastating 257 initial primes and only 3 double checks...
for a 1.1%..... (using Neo math)

Rick, your glory was short lived... Sorry bout that :)

This is a good argument to always have a very fast computer with no cache in boinc.
Or just do PRPnet then you would never be a double checker. ;)

Have to say after my SGS find I now have the bug for actual finds, rather than just subtotals, badges + clean-ups. 50:50 ratio here too.
