Comment (by malb):

 Replying to [comment:20 mraum]:
 > I don't think this code is about performance. The new code will only be
 used in cases that were not available previously (see the cases treated in
 matrix_int_dense). This is why I would like to separate this patch and the
 optimization.

 Sage can compute with larger primes it's just terribly slow, this patch
 fixes that.

 > Also, please keep in mind, that not only William is desperate for having
 Sage use larger moduli (me certainly, John and his student recently posted
 on sage-devel, and most likely many more).

 Fair enough. I am not asking anyone to spend days and days improving the
 performance, but I am asking those who care about this patch to spend 10
 minutes to test various cutoff parameters so that we have a reasonable
 default. If there are that many people who care about this, this should be
 easy.
