Info PrimeGrid Challenges 2024, sieve-free edition

Interesting result-- accidental. So my new 9950x was accidentally turned on after installing BOINC, no lasso running and default profile was set to 8/8. It was actually running 3 tasks. Before I found what was going on, it had been over 10 hours and was only 80%done. So, I changed the profile, and added lasso. Now they are at 10% done at 15 minutes ! WOW what a difference configuration makes.

going to run a side by side test. A 7950x3d and a 9950x using SOB Both other than RAM speed 6000 vs 7200) they are identical, both 4090 video (but not used in either case).

I will let you know the result. Both will use lasso and the same PG profile.
