May I suggest to add a AGM based pi-computation? Well, patches are very welcome! ;-)
I'll give it a try.
Here is why I suggested it: Some people compare performance of Pi computations ignoring that one is AGM based and another is binsplit based. Having both gives a good impression on the performance of these two fundamentally different (and fundamentally important) algorithms.
Good idea. Where, approximately, do you expect a break-even to occur? Should we make bets? -richy. -- Richard B. Kreckel <http://www.ginac.de/~kreckel/>
