Help!
I need access to a big fast machine ASAP, to count points on a
humongous elliptic curve. That requires running a process that takes
about 8 GB of memory (it can be partly swap space - the program is
written to run well in virtual memory). I have't figured out how to
parallelize the algorithm at all and it needs a few days of CPU on a
fast 64-bit machine. Best of all is something like a 1 GHz Alpha or
Itanium 2 (preferably with a friendly sysadmin to increase per-process
resource limits :)
If any FoRKer can think of a way of getting access, please make it
happen and spend some karma points if necessary!
Many thanks in advance to those who can be of assistance,
Rob.
