NAME¶

Math::BigInt::GMP - Use the GMP library for Math::BigInt routines

SYNOPSIS¶

Provides support for big integer calculations by means of the GMP c-library. Math::BigInt::GMP now no longer uses Math::GMP, but provides it's own XS layer to access the GMP c-library. This cut's out another (perl sub routine) layer and also reduces the memory footprint by not loading Math::GMP and Carp at all.
