Why on earth would it take 30 seconds to factor a random 50 bit number? You just check all numbers between 2 and 2^25 (about 32 million). This should take less then a second, maybe two in python. The parent poster likely was thinking 100 bit number (200 qubits), which, while technically tractable, is quite a bit of computing power (assuming that we don't end up with huge coefficients with quantum computers). |
