Comment:

 For the record: Today I slightly improved MeatAxe matrix initialisation
 (my MeatAxe wrapper relies on a modified/improved version of
 MeatAxe-2.2.4, and today I added memset).

 Now, multiplication of two random 2000x2000 matrices over GF(3) takes 1.72
 seconds with MeatAxe (it used to be 11 seconds, without memset), compared
 to 1.65 seconds with _multiply_linbox and 8.34 seconds with plain Sage
 matrices.

 I really wonder why linbox isn't used by default.
