       Dear users of CADO-NFS,

we have updated the timings on the web page (wall clock time in [...]):

Input number        CADO-NFS 2.1                    CADO-NFS 2.2.0
RSA-120             43.6 hours [4.3 hours]          32.2 hours [2.2 hours]
RSA-130             219 hours [18.5 hours]          124 hours [8.2 hours]
RSA-140             597 hours [49.4 hours]          469 hours [30.9 hours]
RSA-155             123 days                        90 days [5.8 days]

If you are doing intensive factorizations, we thus strongly advise you to
use version 2.2.0.
