--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
For univariate polynomials over exact rings, plain karatsuba is used.
However, the degree in which karatsuba starts to be better than plain
multiplication looks too high for me.
Some optimization must be made.
{{{
sage: K=QQ[I][x]
sage: f=K.random_element(1500)
sage: g=K.random_element(1500)
sage: %time _ = f._mul_generic(g)
CPU times: user 6.03 s, sys: 0.08 s, total: 6.11 s
Wall time: 6.43 s
sage: %time _ = f._mul_karatsuba(g)
CPU times: user 6.95 s, sys: 0.06 s, total: 7.01 s
Wall time: 7.76 s
}}}
For instance, many time is used adding elements of the ring with python 0.
Causing an overhead of up to 75% for some rings.
With the added patch we can get up to gain of four times the speed.
