Earlier this year, I built myself a database of the first 10^9 primes  
in chunks of 10^7 numbers per file. Each file is roughly 100 MB,  
implying that if I were to try to duplicate the 10^12 numbers  
mentioned in your reference, I'd be looking for 1 TB of memory  
(excluding compression schemes)! How many primes can you afford to  
own? :)
