I only tried a few  dummy factorizations, of the form
nextprime(10^n + k) * nextprime(10^n + l), for "small" l,k (about 5 for about
5 different n, I think. Can't find the relevant log anymore).

I'd be overjoyed to quote/include more serious/extensive benchmarks. Esp. if
PARI performs better than I thought :-).
