Hi,
I was just factoring a large number for fun
"10309277446862669975817743540791642140663368905539849109663750903470477975" with sympy factorint function it took a long time but with Factordb.com API I got the result within seconds.Since sympy is open source why can't sympy make use of factordb inside the factorint function for factoring large integers.

What is factorDB?
Does it offer any fast algorithm for factoring integers in its own, or does it requires some internet connection to access a database of integer factors.
Although I'm open to any possibilities, but I'm not sure that stuff needs internet connection can be in a scope of `factorint`.
