 Without. The difference is bigger for smaller n of course. Here is a more
 accurate comparison:

 flint:

 100  cpu/wall(s): 2.6e-05 2.68e-05
 200  cpu/wall(s): 8.2e-05 8.57e-05
 400  cpu/wall(s): 0.00039 0.000403
 1000  cpu/wall(s): 0.004 0.00441
 2000  cpu/wall(s): 0.023 0.026
 4000  cpu/wall(s): 0.16 0.172
 10000  cpu/wall(s): 0.91 0.949
 20000  cpu/wall(s): 4.02 4.173
 40000  cpu/wall(s): 18.12 21.109

 sage (without patch):

 100 5 loops, best of 3: 1.05 ms per loop
 200 625 loops, best of 3: 1.52 ms per loop
 400 125 loops, best of 3: 1.96 ms per loop
 1000 125 loops, best of 3: 7.39 ms per loop
 2000 5 loops, best of 3: 38 ms per loop
 4000 5 loops, best of 3: 216 ms per loop
 10000 5 loops, best of 3: 2.17 s per loop
 20000 1 loops, best of 3: 13 s per loop
 40000 1 loops, best of 3: 68 s per loop
