This is one of the faster algorithms, up to 170!. It fails inexplicably beyond 170!, and it's relatively slow for small factorials, but for factorials between 80 and 170 it's blazingly fast compared to many algorithms.

There's also an online interface, try it out now!
Let me know if you find a bug, or faster implementation for large factorials.
EDIT:
This algorithm is slightly slower, but gives results beyond 170:

It also simplifies them into various other representations.
