Description
Hi,
GMP-ECM-6.1.3 has been released. This is a bugfix release.
Changes between ecm-6.1.2 and ecm-6.1.3:
* fixed incorrect computation of memory use in stage 2, especially for
machines that use Kronecker-Schoenhage multiplication even for large
degrees, such as Core 2
* fixed -B2scale option whose value hadn't been passed to the factoring
routines
* fixed default B2min for P-1 which could be truncated on 32 bit
machines,
causing stage 2 to take a little longer than necessary
* fixed bug for modular multiplication modulo Fermat numbers 2^2^n+1,
where
a result of 2^2^n would be truncated to 0
The new version is available at https://gforge.inria.fr/projects/ecm/.
We would like to thank Peter-Lawrence Montgomery, Andreas Schindel and
George Woltman for their bug reports.
Enjoy,
Alex
Cheers,
Michael
