Betreff: Mersenne: Factoring beyond ECM
I'm interested in trying to factor composite numbers with 100 to 200
digits. ECM becomes impractical for numbers without any factors below
50 digits or so. I have heard

used to tackle larger numbers. Are there any (preferably free)
implementations of this

MPQS is ok for numbers up to about 100 digits, at which time NFS takes
over.
Is there a good implementation of this available online?
Have a look at Conrad Curry's NFSNET,
