I am an alumnus of ASU. I think maybe we can try to reach out to the university foundation to see if they can setup a donation page for this project. Another option would be cloud computing. Some alternative cloud providers like Linode may have a cheaper price than AWS or Azure. I (will be come soon) am a software engineer, and I am familiar with cloud computing technologies. Can you list the hardware/network requirements of this project so we can start calculating how much would be required to maintain it?

Hardware is not a problem, I could even use one of my older systems, maybe with an upgraded network card. But to answer your question, one would need the equivalent of a Xeon class processor, an SSD, and a fast network connection.

The bottleneck is the network connection. During the pentathlon earlier this year, the server was processing 400k tasks per day (>16000 file transfers per hour), and the network bandwidth was starting to hit its limit (not sure if it was the connection speed or the ethernet card). So that would be my biggest concern hosting the project somewhere else.

Then I think have a GoFundMe page for the network cost seems a good idea for the project. I am willing to contribute a part of it periodically to support the project. Thank you so much for creating and continue maintenance this project.

Although the list does not look impressive, much was accomplished in 2017. The sub-searches that were completed were some of the longest so far. In summary:
1. The search over Q(sqrt(2)) (subfield 3 of 7) completed several more tiers of the search. There are about 9 tiers left to go.
2. The search over Q(sqrt(-2)) (subfield 4 of 7) filled in a bunch more rows. This one has 7 tiers left to go.

Here are the goals for the new year:
1. Develop a GPU app. I have enlisted the help of a fellow user for this. This is a lofty goal and it could be many months before the GPU app is available. This app will be critical in completing the search over Q(sqrt(2)).
2. Complete the search over Q(sqrt(-2)).
3. Start the search over Q(sqrt(-5)) (subfield 5 of 7).
