Hi Michel and seqfans,

I have plotted (against x/rho(x)) the log(log(x)) of your least known
values of x that give specific low-denominator (x/rho(x)). The latest two
finds that you report appear on my graph to re-inforce a trend; and I note
that discovery of a 130- to 180-digit 5-imperfect number would extend this
apparent trend particularly neatly.

The least x with x/rho(x) = 4.5 is a markedly low outlier, so a simple
trend is clearly an over-simplification, but I find the trend nevertheless
tantalising. Plotting values between 3 and 4 would add to the interest, I
suspect, as would including the second least values.

Best Regards, Peter
