This was mentioned by Leo in Ticket 34934 and 30230:
Oh well, while at it, the *BooleanArray should just use one bit per item not an INTVAL.
I'll tackle that. First I'll propable take a look at Bit::Vector in Perl5, as there are propably a lot of interesting methods on a boolean array.
Great, thanks.
There are even CPUs with processor instructions for counting set bits. Does that call for some inline assembler in PMC C-code?
Not yet IMHO. But I can imagine that PGE might need all available speed hacks. Let's see.
