Comment (by khalasz):
I've changed the patch so that s=stop.sqrt() is calculated outside of the
for loop. After some tests, I saw that this was faster than setting
s=stop.sqrt().n().
Also, note that when p>s, the content of that if loop is a break command,
meaning that the entire for loop ends. Thus, once a single p>s, no more p
values are tried.
