Sieving small prime factors

Before learning how to use polynomial remainder theorem they sieved to 40,000 for each candidate factor, afterwards I think that jumped to 40,000,000

additional restrictions that could be added to prime factors

They also need to be prime for least factors, that means since \[(2kp+1)(2jp+1)=2(2jkp+k+j)p+1\] we can sieve of sundaram within them...
