Well, I was bored, so I made a C# app to calculate prime numbers.
.net 2.0 framework required.
Open it, enter:
1000000 (one million)
And wait for it to complete.
Then post the time it shows.
Tips: Close all background applications.
Note that it will get slower as the numbers get bigger.
And if it's taking up CPU, you should expect it!

Code:
if (i == num)
{
Console.WriteLine(num);
}That makes me cry. Writelines are very CPU intensive. Only the end result is needed.
Code:
Stopwatch timer = new Stopwatch();
timer.Start();
int num;
int i;
for (num = 3; num <= cap; num += 2)
{
for (i = 2; i < num; i++)
{
if (num % i == 0)
{
break;
}
}
}There are other optimizations you could use, but these are some pretty good ones for the moment. I guess it's also because I was trained in the ANSI standard. >_>

Well it does give us a nice visual representation of the process :3.
My computer is slow. Still going through.
EDIT: Done. 17m 47 seconds.

Okay, I re-ran it. Here;s my result.
0d, 0h, 5m, 13s taken for 1000000 as cap

Using the optimized test or the original?
Your computer is much faster than mine either way
Bench test your PC! - AngelSL - 2008-08-30
Original. The optimized wasn't faster at all.

Now let's see who can run the program by hand fastest.

Lol, I actually had a TI-Basic (graphing calculator language) program that spit out prime numbers on my calculator... it took about an entire class period to get from 2 to 8000-ish, when I aborted it. I didn't bother to implement a stopping point, so it would've gone on forever until it ran out of battery.
5:25. What do you know, that's my birthday.

13:xx -_- I'm going to fully reïnstall windows soon, because my computer has been slow for the last 2 weeks, even though I clean it all the time...
