No, time will be the limiting factor for testing M(n). I have 320
megabytes, so if you devote 300 megs to data, I have enough space to test
M(1,200,000,000). I certainly don't have enough time to test that. The
space required is a linear function of n whereas the time required is at
least a quadratic function of n, so the time requirement grows much more
rapidly than the space requirement.
