Field notes
The project frames the search as browser-based volunteer computing, assigning each participant a range of x + y values rather than asking browsers to try every triple directly. Its displayed frontier is 1.85 × 10¹⁷, with a claimed 13% chance that the next tenfold step contains a solution. The page also explains that duplicate checking is intended to prevent an unverified slice from advancing the search.
