Processing Resource Applet

The applet in this page is configured to send updates to the control server every minute, and write current values to the history display every 500 iterations, when running the Lucas-Lehmer test.

If you navigate away from this page, the applet will close, and processing will stop. If you then return to this page, the applet will request a new job from the control server.
