12:39 < roconnor> idle thought: would it be a good idea for field inverse to return the inverse squared and inverse cubed, since they are commonly used?  The inverse squared is litterly a sub-computation of the inverse function.
12:40 < roconnor> um I guess that remark only holds non-gmp inverse function.
12:41 < gmaxwell> I think I mentioned this to sipa recently but then realized that we should ultimately only be using the ladder inverse in signing.
12:41 < roconnor> is the inverse squared not used in signing?
12:42 < sipa> in verification code a faster modular inverse implementation is possible
12:42 < sipa> the ladder is just the only one implemented right now (and it also happens to be constant time)
12:44 < gmaxwell> The inverse square is used in signing, computing 1/z^2 for reprojection to affine... but saving one square in signing isn't a particuarly interesting optimization.
12:45 < roconnor> ok
