does SAGE compute Pi using Chudnovsky algorithm?
In 1989, Chudnovsky brothers discovered this method for computers to calculate digits of Pi.
Sage uses the mpfr library to compute pi to arbitrary precision. The mpfr algorithm apparently has a limit of 646456992 digits. Please refer to

Not sure if that is up-to-date, however.
