We have now about half of hosts asking for HGCD_METHOD = 1 as for HGCD_METHOD = 3. Itanic wants HGCD_METHOD 2, and so does beagle (Arm a8), but the latter with a preference of just 0.05% (over method 3).
_METHOD 1 benefits from the special handling of q = 1 before invoking DIV1. _METHOD 2 & 3 are optimised for small q, so implicitly repeats the special handling of q = 1. The speed difference between the preferred _METHOD and the 2nd best _METHOD is not huge. In most cases it is < 10%. The greatest difference is for the system mati at 19%. -- Torbjörn Please encrypt, key id 0xC8601622 _______________________________________________ gmp-devel mailing list gmp-devel@gmplib.org https://gmplib.org/mailman/listinfo/gmp-devel
