Prime Time Tactics—Sieve Tweaks and Boosters

Abstract

In a landscape where interest in prime sieving has waned and practitioners are few, we are still hoping for a domain renaissance, fueled by a resurgence of interest and a fresh wave of innovation. Building upon years of extensive research and experimentation, this article aims to contribute by presenting a heterogeneous compilation of generic tweaks and boosters aimed at revitalizing prime sieving methodologies. Drawing from a wealth of resurfaced knowledge and refined sieving algorithms, techniques, and optimizations, we unveil a diverse array of strategies designed to elevate the efficiency, accuracy, and scalability of prime sieving algorithms; these tweaks and boosters represent a synthesis of old wisdom and new discoveries, offering practical guidance for researchers and practitioners alike.
