"However, there is no requirement that specific findings be made on each factor because such fact finding would unnecessarily encumber a sentencing proceeding." United States v. Gelb, 944 F.2d 52, 56 (2d Cir.1991) (quotation omitted). We have stated that "the district judge need only consider the listed factors, and a statement that the district judge has considered the statutory factors is sufficient." Id. at 56-57 (quotation and citation omitted).
