This is a comment at the comments of Gerhard "Still Computing Oh So Slowly" Paseman's answer.

I used the function fharm(n,eps) = frac(h(n))*n^(1+eps) to find the local minima for a fixed eps and consecutive arguments n. The n-1 of my list should agree with the n in the comments. (The harmonic numbers can be computed in Pari/GP using h(n) = psi(1+n) + Euler )

This is what I got using Pari/GP and 800 digits internal precision in a couple of seconds:

               n     |   fharm(n,0.1)
