Merry Christmas Brian (and all). I used to have an Athlon XP but no longer. However I do have an AMP Turion 64 x2 and of course have access to Opterons. I'm betting the tuning parameters are nearly the same for these machines. We can give it a go. I'll send a file hopefully later today. It can't

Hi jason, What hardware did you get a benchmark of 9000 on? The benchmark will change depending on the speed of the processor and the type of machine. It certainly sounds good in comparison with gmp. It is important not to increase the code size too much. It might make one function faster, but
