I never looked that far into GNFS. Is it sufficiently amenable to parallelization to run on a GPU cluster?
Theoretically, but I don't think it's been done yet in the public cryptanalysis world. The last time I talked with a serious cryptographer about it he described it as suitable for an exceptionally ambitious Ph.D thesis -- from which I conclude that it's possible but extremely daunting.
