David W. Lambert <lamber...@corning.com> added the comment:

Probably a better prime factor algorithm uses Sieve of E. to generate
primes through int(1+sqrt(n)) and test these.

The other algorithm uses a custom generator anyway.  Oh well, good luck,
I'll shut up.
You do have use cases that I couldn't think of.

Dave.
