Bug: Max Qubit number limit Shor (2)

[PetarJurcevic]

I have not seen the same error with Shor method 1 with max_qubits=25

What target system are you using to run these?
Shors method 2 uses mid-circuit measurement to operate with fewer qubits. It is encoding something that clearly does not fit. We might need to modify the encoding or use a larger integer.

I'd like to be help resolve these issues in the benchmarks.

Ah yes, you are correct. I'll take a look into that, and if that cause the error I'll close the issue

It looks like the error is a local python issue and can be easily resolved.

This is the fix for this issue. However, it may no longer be an issue with newer Python versions.

if you get this error:

ValueError: Exceeds the limit (4300) for integer string conversion
you can increase the limit by:

import sys
sys.set_int_max_str_digits(0)
Now, you can do bigger calculations.
