The computation began Fri 13 Aug 2010 10:16:20 pm EDT   and ended  6:27:43 pm EDT  |  Wednesday, September 8, 2010.  With Mathematica 6.0 for Microsoft Windows (64-bit) (June 19, 2007)  That is an average of 7.44 seconds per digit.. I used my Dell Studio XPS 8100 i7 860 @ 2.80 GH 2.80 GH with 8GB physical DDR3 RAM. Windows 7 reserved an additional 48.929 GB virtual Ram.<a href="/view.aspx?sf=96778/438462/203332.jpg"><img src="/view.aspx?sf=96778/438462/203332.jpg" alt=""></a> This confirms my previous computation of 260,000 digits.

They were computed from Sat 8 Oct 2011 23:50:40 to Sat 5 Nov 2011 19:53:42. This run was 0.5766 seconds per digit slower than the 299,998 digit computation even though it used 16GB physical DDR3 RAM on the same machine. The working precision and accuracy goal combination were maximized for exactly 300,000 digits, and the result was automatically saved as a file instead of just being displayed on the front end. Windows reserved a total of 63 GB of working memory of which at 52 GB were recorded being used.
