Samuel Yates began, and this site continues, a database of the largest known primes. Primes in that database are assigned a proof-code to show who should be credited with the discovery as well as what programs and projects they used. (Discoverers have one prover-entry, but may have many proof-codes because they use a variety of programs...) This page provides data on CH3, one of those codes.

Descriptive Data:
(report abuse )
The following software was used:
(1) Pari-GP for cyclotomic (and, where appropriate,
Aurifeuillian) factorizations of N^2-1.
(2) GMP-ECM, Msieve and ggnfs for extracting PrP factors of
such cyclotomic cofactors.
(3) Primo for proving these helpers prime.
(4) OpenPFGW for BLS tests with these prime helpers.
(5) David Broadhurst's corrections to John Renze's
implementation of CHG in Pari-GP for exhausting the residue
classes established by PFGW.
The largest effort was expended on GMP-ECM. Factorization
percentages for some current top-20s are listed at
this yahoo page , in the cases primV and lucasU, and
here , in the case of Lehmer numbers.
