From what I’ve seen, it seems like P v.s. NP and the Riemann hypothesis are very, very difficult and will take a long time to solve. Instead, what problem has enough pieces of the puzzle discovered to be close to being solved?

From what I hear it's always sounded like Navier and Yang-Mills are closest, P vs NP and Riemann are furthest, while Hodge and Swinnerton-Dyer people don't really talk about at all outside circles of hardcore algebraic geometers/topologists
