To quench your thirst for results, here's another one:
newRPL does it in 0.057s, but it doesn't use any advanced algorithm (yet). This is plain brute force: take every prime from 1 to sqrt(N), divide it and check the remainder. I wouldn't be surprised if a more advanced primality test in the 34S would beat it.
