How fast is your BPSW code?  From that project I have been working on
I have confirmed there are no psp's up to 2^64 using BPSW so that
should work quite well after the trial division assuming it doesn't
take too long to run.

Or we could even use the BPSW code from Thomas R. Nicely since he
already gave us permission to use it for the benchmark code if it is
faster than your implementation.
