Comment (by robertwb):

 The only way to know for sure is to code something up and compare
 performance, until then all discussion is rather hypothetical (and I could
 see things going both ways, but probably would place my bet on mpz_t.)

 Note that mpz_t could be a member of the bitset struct (if indeed another
 struct is needed) which would avoid one level of indirection. It may be
 worth looking at using the mpn structures directly for this low-level
 behavior as well.
