Describe your change:

Improve Project Euler problem 058 solution 1 - the top 7 slowest solution on Travis CI logs (under slowest 10 durations: 11.38s call scripts/validate_solutions.py::test_project_euler[problem_058/sol1.py]):

  • Fix typo

  • Improve solution (locally 4+ times - from 8+ seconds to ~2 seconds)

  • Add an algorithm?

  • Fix a bug or typo in an existing algorithm?

  • Documentation change?

Changes the prime checker and uses isqrt. Tested both solutions with timeit with a milion iterations testing numbers from 0 to 100. I tested only the isprime function.
Base was 7.2938464519999995 the changed version in the pull request was 6.3931597710000005.

For checking numbers 0 to 1000, same set up I got: 72.098172718s old and 95.55209983499999 ne.

@chakeson Do you want to say that my improvement is slower for numbers 0 to 1000 and faster for numbers from 0 to 100? Please check these tests once more time. In my opinion, the greater number, the faster improvement (over base)

P.S. You approved pr, but you are not authorized to merge it?

It's testing 10x the size so I would expect it to be around 10x the time, but the speed up for 1000 is faster then the speed up for 100. For 100 its 12% faster for 1000 its 24% faster.
It's python its not going to be very fast no matter what you do. Using isqrt will cause it too look for it in local scoop then in "solution scope" then global and find it so that will add time just looking for it (not 100% sure on this).
