We got nerd sniped at almost the exact same time, but approached this in very different ways. I applaud your practical approach, but based on what I calculated, you should stop now. It will never reach 99.999%
99.5% would still be e^200 numbers checked (7x10^86). According to the Quora link in my other comment, we’ve only calculated the first 4x10^18 primes in sequence as of 7 years ago. 95% is very doable though.

Whew. I’m only going for 99.5%, which according to your other comment is doable!.. But impractical
