PiFast has been developped on windows but is available on other platforms. It should be noted that on non-windows platforms, version 4.0 is not available yet but previous version 3.3 can be downloaded.
Download PiFast43 on windows : here.
Download PiFast33 on other platforms :
hpux 10.20 : pifast_hp.gz
irix 6.2 : pifast_irix.gz
aix 4.3.2 : pifast_aix.gz
Warning : unix platforms are known to have problems on the e computation in mode #1. The other modes work well.
The program was been written in 32 bit adressing space, so no more than 2 gig of memory should be used.

- Computes decimal digits of pi, e=exp(1), sqrt2, with the high limit of 17 billion digits.
- Very fast (fastest pi program available on the web - July 5 2003).
- Much more economical in memory than other pi programs.
- Parameters can be used to fit in the memory machine (memory saved <-> time lost).
