David, did your comparative GMP/Magma timings take into account this MAGMA binary issue, which I presume William told you about? I.e. which binary of MAGMA did you measure against?
It interests me that MAGMA appears 2 times faster for some bit lengths. It doesn't seem possible if they are actually using GMP for the multiplications, though I note for the range we are really interested in, the timings are the same.
