For my memory many years ago, which may be inaccurate, I think the performance benefit of libjbigi was basically wiped out by Java 7's reimplementation of BigInteger. I wrote some tests, which might still work today: https://github.com/freenet/fred/tree/bigint7 There is also my library which uses GCJ's BigInteger (which indirectly uses GMP), with some more tests: https://github.com/infinity0/gmp-java And I seem to remember that my library has better performance than libjbigi as well. However, all of this is probably insignificant compared to the developer cost of maintaining this code.
