That's a very recent change to the LargeInteger primitives, wasn't in my old spur vm (a month old perhaps). So,in addition to #digitAdd: being 3 times slower than #+ (...jittability? Shouldn't be *that* much more work to add a byte to another byte compared to whatever #+ does) nor is it hitting the fast path for replaceFrom:.. (2 variableX instances) either, meaning it'll see an even bigger improvement from reverting compared to Pharo4 (which got 50% faster...) > ' > > cool!
