Either-or. RSA-1024's dangerously close to being brute-forceable, too.
We've already brute-forced RSA-768 and we're closing in on RSA-890. I
haven't looked into how well the general number field sieve
parallelizes, but I wouldn't want to take bets on how long RSA-1024
could stand up to a massive Amazon Cloud instance.
