primesieve
Prime number generator
primesieve
is a command-line program and C/C++ library for quickly generating prime numbers. It is very cache efficient, it detects your CPU's L1 & L2 cache sizes and allocates its main data structures accordingly. It is also multi-threaded by default, it uses all available CPU cores whenever possible i.e. if sequential ordering is not required. primesieve can generate primes and prime k-tuplets up to 264.
