<p>I'm rapidly approaching 300,000 curves in my ongoing search for Mordell curves of rank >=8.</p> <p>Currently I'm finding that I have a bottleneck in the code that locates rational points on these curves.</p> <p>In my ongoing search for efficiency I'm looking around for alternatives to Stoll's wonderful Ratpoints library, which has served me very well up to now.</p> <p>I did note that Nvidia have recently released the K20X Tesla card and I wanted to ask if anyone had successfully used these cards, or similar, for this type of work.</p> <p>Kevin.</p> <p>EDIT:</p> <p>I've broken the 300,000 barrier as of 21/12/12 with 302974 curves in our capture range.</p>
