a(1) to a(15): {5, 3, 13, 5, 3, 29, 3, 13, 13, 3, 5, 127, 31, 7, 17}. Even using Kim Walisch's "primecount" program, it cannot find a(16).

Try Kim Walisch's "primecount" program to compute Prime[large number]

https://github.com/kimwalisch/primecount

primecount -t4 -n 12055296811267

produces 392654585611999 in less than 2 seconds on 4 cores of a Core
i5-2400 @ 3.1 GHz.
