I have just set a new factoring record for a general purpose algorithm: the 84
digit primitive factor of 3^178 + 1. This number has the trivial algebraic
factor 10 = 3^2+1 and the remaining two factors are:

and
709803280757497203996320461865063802526226069876477910653
The factorization took a total of 1460 CPU hours divided among 10
SUN-3's using the Multiple Polynomial Quadratic Sieve.
