Dear GAP Forum,

For theoretical complexity considerations/comparisons, I would be interested to 
know how GAP's built-in algorithm for order computation, called via Order 
(discussed in Subsection 31.10-10 in the manual), proceeds to compute the order 
of an automorphism alpha of a finite pc group G, where alpha is defined via its 
images on the presentation generators of G (through a call of 
GroupHomomorphismByImages).

Since the manual does not seem to give details on this, is there any way to 
find out other than diving into GAP's source code? Thank you very much for your 
answers.

Best wishes,
Alexander
