Just browsed the JDK 17 source code for the long methods. These use a method from Hacker's Delight (**2nd ed**). So the Hacker's Delight (presumed **1st ed**) method in ArithmeticUtils has been improved. Without access to the book, and a license compatibility check, we cannot use the updated version. But the original is still 15-25x faster than the JDK 8/11 version using BigInteger. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
