Then my "other" calc does the same in "an order of 10 times the magnitude". So, in 0,432 secs it has performed 0,000226379693794 of the work that my Prime has done.. (0,432^10=~2,26*10^-4)

Not quite.

An order of magnitude. Or two orders of magnitude and so on.
When you say "an order of 10 times the magnitude" maybe you mean "ten orders of magnitude".

In this case it would be: 0.432 e10 or 0.432 x 10^10 .
