-If every subtotal is calculated twice and the two results match, the counts should be considered correct (provided the code is correct). The re-counting is in progress and has been done up to 30% as of 2024/02/17.

-During the thorough double-check, it was discovered that a portion of the results generated by an instance was incorrect. The instance ran with two RTX-4090s for 60 hours and generated 3,771 sub-subtotals. Out of those sub-subtotals only 12 was incorrect and all incorrect results were generated by only one of the two RTX-4090s. It is unlikely that these errors are due to logical flaws or coding mistakes. Hardware defects or instability are the most probable causes.

-While these errors have not damaged my confidence in the logic and the code I used, it is possible that errors of similar nature may still be contained in the result. Therefore, the results should be considered unconfirmed until the thorough double-check is completed.
