Works fine for me (Win7).
Speed of matrix routines seems the same as the 25-digit version.
Trigs are like 6 times faster. So those lookup tables pay off ;-)
The value of PI is not correct to 34 digits - last digit is an 8 while it should be a 3.
And of course, round-to-even works!
I'll keep playing with various functions..
