I don't have access to Mathematica, but according to [1], Mathematica 8.0 t= akes about 1.7 seconds for the first computation at 3000 decimal digits, which i= s comparable to 10000 bits (however this is for complex input, I don't know i= f Mathematica is faster for real numbers). Subsequent computations on my machine take 0.083s each with the development version of MPFR (at 10000 bits).
