Abstract: We present a new algorithm that finds all primes up to n using at most O(n= log log n)
arithmetic operations and O(n=(log n log log n)) space. This algorithm is an improvement
of a linear prime number sieve due to Pritchard. Our new algorithm matches the
running time of the best previous prime number sieve, but uses less space by a factor
of \Theta(log n).
In addition, we present the results of our implementations of most known prime
number sieves.
