JarCastingprimes4j
This package has a list of all the prime numbers up to Integer.MAX_VALUE (2147483647) which is itself a prime number. This list contains 105097565 entries. The list consists of a sequence of integers each stored as 4 bytes, thus it is 420390260 bytes in memory.
On top it offers a tiny API to load this list (complete or partially) and for example find the prime factors for a number or check whether a given int is prime or not.
This project is mostly useful for playing around with number theory related problems which can be computed within the realm of int values.

Usage Example (1)
import de.scravy.primes.Primes;
public class Example1 {
public static void main(final String[] args) {
final Primes primes = Primes.load(10000); // only loads 10000 primes which is faster
System.out.println(primes.getPrimeFactors(2868)); // prints [2, 2, 3, 239]
}
}
Usage Example (2)
import de.scravy.primes.Primes;
public class Example {
public static void main(final String[] args) {
final Primes primes = Primes.load(); // takes a while as it loads all primes into memory
System.out.println(primes.isPrime(Integer.MAX_VALUE)); // prints true
}
}
