I believe that the amount of analysis of the exponent we can afford is a function of the expected computation time. A popcount adds linear time in the exponent size. If the base and modular argument are small enough, that will add noticeable overhead. We might want to do a more sophisticated analysis of the exponent when the base and modular are are large enough. -- Torbjörn Please encrypt, key id 0xC8601622 _______________________________________________ gmp-devel mailing list gmp-devel@gmplib.org https://gmplib.org/mailman/listinfo/gmp-devel
