Which operating system, and which compiler?

It's probably also worth trying for a much larger number of primes. I 
wrote my command line parser so it will try to read the number as a 
double if it isn't an integer.

For 100000000000 primes my code on my machine is 39s, and yours is 3:46.

(I've got the mod30 version down to 28s now, but met an intractable 
optimiser funny)
