A computer can be a useful tool to search for compositions, yet even with today's fast processors exhausting many composition searches is too big a task.

If you have completely exhausted a computer search for compositions, please add an entry to the table below, stating any constraints you applied to the search, when you first ran it, and any other information you think would be of interest.
