Comment:

 Those two patches are a definite improvement, so I'm giving it a positive
 review.

 I've opened #10277 for another issue with {{{random_prime}}}

 Sage's implementation is also incredibly slow compared to Mathematica.
 After 20 minutes of CPU time on a 3.33 GHz machine I was unable to
 generate one up to 10^1000^ with Sage. Yet Mathematica can do that in 7
 seconds!
