Well, see the topic. In other words, is it possible to get a quick "P-1
factoring for dummies" rundown? At which point is P-1 factoring worth
the effort? Does it have any overlappign with ECM? How should the bounds
be chosen for any given exponent, and will higher bounds always find any
factors smaller bounds would have, or is there an advantage to running
lower bounds? As I understand, every run with _same_ bounds would find
the same factors?
