Which Stefan? :)


Anyway, the first half of this issue was centered around the
proposition that fractions are a "better decimal", and the
latest pull request still has the "decimal backend" in it. :)


Fast fractions have been around for a long time (Lisp/sbcl),
but apparently they have never been widely used.


A fraction-only benchmark is okay, but comparing fractions/decimals
in one particular "official" benchmark is a bit strange.
