Also in the area of "bignum support", I have developed a C++ class for
large integers. I haven't made in solid speed measurements yet, but
it seems to be relatively fast. (More precisely, I was able to
compute large Fibonacci numbers much faster than in scheme running
under emacs. I don't claim this to be thorough measurement in any
way!) If anyone is interested, send me email.
