September 2006: New Mersenne Prime!
Dot

The page summarizes the current search status for Mersenne numbers with exponents below 79,300,000. The PrimeNet server also has a stats page updated every hour.

It can easily be proven that a Mersenne prime must have a prime number as an exponent. This table summarizes the current search status of Mersenne numbers with prime exponents.

This table has been replaced by a server generated report.


GIMPS Milestones

This table has been replaced by a server generated report.

This does not mean that the v5 server and v25 beta client is almost ready for release. This is simply a test of the v5 server's ability to maintain the GIMPS database and provide useful reports.


The Mersenne Database

This database is not being updated. Instead, a new server database is. There are several server-based reports that can be used to access this new database.
