Comment(by SimonKing):

 Replying to [comment:1 SimonKing]:
 > According to the Singular manual, Singular allows all field sizes below
 `2^16`. Looking at the gftables directory of my installation on my linux
 computer, clearly there are less tables than field sizes. So, I guess that
 the tables are only created when needed.

 I was wrong: The gftables file contains files for ''all'' prime powers
 greater than 1 and smaller than `2^16` that are not prime. So, that looks
 as if it was made at compilation time.
