 Replying to [comment:59 pernici]:

 This is great -- on my machine adding your [attachment:
 trac_1956_faster_MPowerSeries_mul.patch] and
 `trac_10480_fast_PowerSeries_poly_multiplication2.patch` from #10480 drops
 the total time for doctests in
 `sage.rings.multi_power_series_ring_element` from 3.5 seconds to 2.8
 seconds.

 After reading the discussion at #10480, it looks like speeding up the
 multiplication is a somewhat subtle problem, so I propose opening a
 separate ticket for this issue.  Then we can look into the relative
 advantages of `do_mul_trunc_generic` and the Karatsuba algorithm, and
 patch `MPowerSeries._mul_` to take advantage of the optimal one.  I'll do
 this unless you think #10480 already includes this issue.
