2022 was the year of ℚ(√-10) (subfield 7), as most of our time was spent on that search. Many new fields were found and we are now entering the final row of the search. In the next 3 to 6 months we should be at the point where we can say with almost certainty that it is complete.

The goals for 2023 are simple:
1. Get subfield 7 to the point where it is essentially complete.
2. Go back and officially complete subfield 3, so we can say with 100% certainty that it is done.
3. Do more on subfield 7 or move on to subfield 6 (the final search).

Thanks everyone for your contributions and have a wonderful New Year!

Is there any way to guesstimate percentage of total work done ... or have all workunits not been generated?

Would be cool to see updates every month or two, so folks have an idea of how close we are to completion!

Very exciting, all the best!!

I can only make estimates on those batches that have been generated. So this means the current batch sf7_DS16x11 and the last of sf3. You should be able to get estimates from the batch status page for those cases. I have generated the first 3 million from set sf7_DS16x12 and from my tests, I estimate that set will take approximately 1 year at the current rate. I have not generated any of the remaining sf6 cases, so those are unknown, but I can say that sf6 will be the hardest subfield (and hence why we do him last).

Cool, thanks for the explanation!
