Did you miss the "And got a 3x speedup" part of the post you were replying to? Actual benchmarks of real code always trump theoretical deliberations.
- jeffdavis 6y agoYikes. I was just trying to link to a relevant technique that the author might find helpful. A big integer library may have many use cases; a benchmark only shows one data point. It's possible that by deferring carry work across more operations he'd see an even bigger improvement.
