I am 2 workers

[Worker #2 Nov 16 11:54] Resuming primality test of M22697959 using FFT length 1280K
[Worker #2 Nov 16 11:54] Iteration: 892644 / 22697959 [3.93%].
[Worker #1 Nov 16 11:54] Resuming primality test of M22697947 using FFT length 1280K
[Worker #1 Nov 16 11:54] Iteration: 881449 / 22697947 [3.88%].

My computer is helping to find out whether the numbers 2^22697959 and 2^22697947 are prime. If it keeps working on this 24/7, it's expected to finish around 3 December.
