Tips:
You must log into your account at PrimeGrid to change your project preferences so that you are only crunching the correct sub project. In this case SGS-LLR.
Intel boxes tend to perform better. The HT probably needs turned off since these are not sieve work units. However with how short these are, you may not notice much. Do your testing in advance.
Intel chips tend to out perform AMD chips
PrimeGrid work will stress hardware harder and so is more sensitive to overclocking. Therefore make sure you have tested their work units on your rigs before the challenge to make sure they are stable.
These challenges only count work units downloaded during and completed before end of the challenge. So, no bunkering.
Since these work units are really small, you should run with zero cache. You don't want to have work sitting around because the first person to complete the work unit gets credit for the Prime when found. SGS has the highest probability of finding a prime.
