So RSA 260 is about 2-3 times harder than RSA 250, which was solved in 2700 core hours in 2020, so it’s probably no algorithmic improvements, just a tweak here

- mswphd 1mo agofaster hardware could also mean gpu/asic/etc.
- ni5arga 1mo agoI'm assuming it is still GNFS but GPU backed. For reference, check this out: > cuda-sieve is an experimental, standalone CUDA implementation of the lattice-sieving relation-collection pipeline used by the Number Field Sieve. It builds factor bases, sieves both sides of a special-q lattice, performs trial division and GPU cofactorisation, and emits relations for msieve. https://github.com/kyleaskine/cuda-sieve https://github.com/kyleaskine/cuda-sieve
