Hi,
I once had a general solution for big factorials as an example for my students
in computer algebra. If this is of interest, I could write up the docstring for
it, tweak the function somewhat, and post it here. Right now it takes some 77
seconds to compute all 35660 digits of 10000!, but there's still some room for
improvement.
So, if anyone's interested, drop me a note!
Alex
