What facilities are available to me here?  For example, the following:

p=211
F.<x>=GF(p)[]
G.<a>=GF(p^17,name='a',modulus=x^17+2*x^2+1)
g=G.multiplicative_generator()
r=G.random_element()
discrete_log(r,g)

ties up my computer for several minutes while using all possible CPU,
then finally Sage gives up the ghost and crashes.

Thanks,
Alasdair
