To make sure I'm understanding this correctly: sieving saves time because it finds factors, making it unnecessary to run the proth test on that number. Also, at this point, sieving is eliminating n faster than proth tests are. The optimal sieve depth is the point at which sieving removes candidates at the same rate as proth tests. Are these statements accurate?
