Gonek's conjecture for the Mertens function

Let μ(n)\mu(n) be the Möbius function and define the Mertens function by

M(x)=nxμ(n).M(x)=\sum_{n\leqslant x}\mu(n).

Let lim\overline{\varliminf} denote the upper limit of the lower limit. Gonek's conjecture. There exists a number B>0B>0 such that

limM(x)x(logloglogx)5/4=±B.\overline{\varliminf}\frac{M(x)}{\sqrt{x}(\log\log\log x)^{5/4}}=\pm B.

The conjecture concerns the expected extreme order of the Mertens function and is presented as related to the direct Riemann hypothesis for the Riemann zeta function; the paper gives no proof or resolution.
