What sort of performance boost, if any, should be expected from 64 bit complied
gsl code? I've found a modest, 5-10% speedup in some experiments.

Hi Gideon:
I suppose that it depends on what you are trying to do.
I suspect that some PRNGs will approx. double in
performance since the 64-bit math can now be performed
natively.
