Hi All,
Just to chime in a little bit here. I prefer (a) (the integrate it into PARI option) because I'm currently working on a C/OpenMPI code to perform a bunch of the PARI linear algebra stuff in parallel systems. Should have flakey-half-way-working code by mid. Feb., but my target is to make many of the routines dropin replacements for many of the PARI routines. So, hopefully code that uses those routines will be easily parallelizable. By the way, if anyone is at the AMS-MAA joint meetings right now, leave me a message at the message board (email is kind of spotty here). --jason ----------------------------------------------------------- Jason Worth Martin Asst.

[....] OK, so basically you're saying, find the part of PARI that gets called whenever polynomials need to be multiplied, add a line like "if (size > 42) ..." which converts to FLINT format, runs the multiplication, and converts back to PARI format. So the integration you have in mind is not all that tight. I guess this would be doable, and I agree it shouldn't be too difficult. David >
