addprimes() efficiency


Hello,

Is there a way in GP to add "raw" primes to the prime table? The problem is that addprimes() scales as O(n^2) where n=number of primes.
When adding 10000 primes this really is a problem.

Maybe addprimes() should have a flag, saying "all my primes are really prime, unique and sorted".
