Comment (by dcoudert):

 I agree that for small bitsets, one can possibly produce a very fast
 implementation in C. But then you should implement a "small-size-bitset"
 type with all dedicated and optimized methods. I'm not sure it is worth
 the effort.

 Since GMP / MPIR (I don't know which one is the best) are already used by
 sage and are reasonably fast, It is interesting to use them for bitsets or
 at least to try. I assume they use calls to low level / build in methods.
