What is the relation between polynomial factorisation and field size?

Please kindly let me know if the question is not suitable for this forum or duplicated.


Assume all operations and polynomials are defined and done on $\mathbb{F}_q$, where $q$ is a large prime number of size $z$ bits.

Question: What is the complexity of factorizing a polynomial over $\mathbb{F}_q$? How does the size of $q$ play a role in the factorization complexity?
