So WEP found the 8-digit factor in just _one_ iteration. [and yes, it
really did just finish today :)] The only snag being it takes several
weeks to run that iteration, currently, on a number of that size.
Maybe the next step would be to replace GMP with GWNUM, within the
factorize3 program... (a project for the New Year?)
