Hello PrimeGrid!
Since 321 SV is shutting down, I have been binging it pretty hard for the last 3 weeks.
During that, I noticed that it gave me a lot of credit/task, like 600, and that it ran fast on CPU as it
was designed for it.
Are there any almost-as-efficient sub-projects out there?
Thanks in advance!

Actually, 321 SV isn't particularly great performing. For something like your i7 4790, which has support for FMA3, the LLR projects can make full use of that instruction set to greatly boost performance when compared to older-than-haswell machines.
As to which one, there's a plethora of options. You can hunt for badges like most of us do, or chose a specific one that you find nice and deserving of your computation power; it's really up to you. | |

If you're after credits, choose conjectures with really long computation times like SoB. It gives a 50% long job and 10% conjecture bonus. I think it's nearly 1,000,000 credits per finished task. Takes a few days though.
If you're after badges, you have to do them all anyway. ;) Only advice, get a GPU for GFN, PPS-Sv and AP27. Even a cheap one crunches those tasks faster than a CPU.

Bur, a DYFL is nearly 1M cr. SoB currently around 70k cr. Agreed for LLR SoB is the best option, especially now as there won't be the long wait times for wingpeople like before
If you want credits, PPS sv is the most 'rewarding' in terms of sheer numbers. But this is almost 'oversubscribed'. | |

And I am soooo glad they did the LLR2 stuff for the LLR Projects, it makes it sooo much easier to get the next badge without going over until you get it or waiting awhile for the wingmen. | |
