Well, that is probably the least interesting part. I use Will's
MersFacGMP program on a PII/233 running RedHat 5.2.

Well yes, especially when the numbers are as big as 33mil, but when there
are 91423 remaining numbers, it takes a bit longer to calculate.
(89555 after factoring to 2^47). Now I'm trying 2^50, (that should take a
while). What do you mean by stragglers?
