Me too. Also, I don't see the point. Python's current long integer performance is good enough for the large majority of Python users. For the few specialized users, an extension module should serve. Maybe I missed something but I thought the real concern was the performance of the PyLong type when representing relatively short integers. Is GMP a solution to that?
