hi there wandering,

what kind of code you have to do this speed next to his code, tweaked it,
got it for sharing ready, thanks for sharing,
i got the 640000 whatever it said with the original.,
so would be nice to have a faster one..

I have almost the same speed regardless of whether I use Python, Rust, or C++, as long
as it's based on a script from here

This is because I have exactly the same GMP library and the same formulas everywhere.

Ole, FE57, oldie but goodie!  I believe it's sprinkled in the python script as well.  But this was one of the first Python scripts that I remember seeing put out for the public. Many worked on it.

I'm wondering if going from GMP to iceland's package, would offer some speed up.
