The C81 that I tried from the command line on SAGE.math terminated
normally after finding the factors. It took under 2 hours (I didn't
time it but my connection closed after that time so it must have
finished before then).

So it is not the sieve itself which causes the factorization to not
complete from the notebook interface (I factored exactly the same
number in both instasnces).

At any rate, C81's are OK for my sieve, if not a little slow.

I am working to get the time down on large factorizations. Hopefully I
can reduce their time by a factor of about 3 before the next release of
my sieve. It's not much point parallelizing it if it is slower than it
should be for larger factorizations, since it is these that people are
going to want to parallelize.

Of course it is still faster than Pari as it is, but that isn't good
enough for me.

Bill.
