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.
