I you try this code (https://gist.github.com/jhoenicke/2e39b3c6c49b1d7b216b8626197e4b89) and want to get all puzzle private keys up to #57 , you need to change
giant steps up to 2^28

#define GSTEP (1<<28)

otherwise it stops at #52

That works only if you have enough RAM to store 2^28 keys. Otherwise that program cannot retrieve #57.

Besides if you want to retrieve only #57 and you don't modify the code, it starts always from 1 to 2^57 - 1 (instead from 2^56 to 2^57 - 1)
