Hi, Regarding the discrepancy in timings between me and Justin Walker using OS X *intel* Mathematica, it turns out I was running Mathematica on my laptop under OS X via Rosetta, so those times should be ignored. The timings I've posted under Linux are all fine. SO, currently SAGE and Mathematica on OSX Intel MacBook Pro 2.33Ghz take almost exactly the same amount of time (95 seconds) to compute p(10^9).
On 64-bit Linux Mathematica is still faster than SAGE, so probably there is a 64-bit only precision trick that is relevant... -- William --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
