A look ahead

Now that my Leyland-prime-find farm is running and I am done with the previous-interval search that had still been running on my other Macs, I'm ready to have a look at the future of this endeavour:

#0 is the interval that I am currently searching. [Remember that L(x,y) = x^y+y^x, x≥y>1.] The quantity after the interval is how many Leyland numbers there are between the interval's end points. After that is a rounded-up average of the base-ten logarithms of all of those Leyland numbers — therefore, the average number of their decimal-digits size.

Following this is a ballpark estimate of how many days the interval search will require. [The 241 days (= 8 months) of the last interval suggests that it should probably be split into parts.] After this is the expected date of completion — assuming of course that all previous days-estimate are accurate, that I am able to start a new interval immediately after completing its predecessor, and that there are no hiccups, such as extended power interruptions or software/hardware failures.

When an interval is completed I will add an actual date after the estimated one so as to provide a sense of how the project is coming along.
