It works quite well and performant, for long doubles the table needs some space ( ~260kB ), the effort is justified because the results influence the scaling, and thus results, in almost all other rounding calculations. In this respect, I would recommend implementing similar for glibc until a better solution is found. ( having a bug with clear description and test program 'unconfirmed' after more than 12 month is a questionable performance ... ) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
