nx_karatsuba_test.nx -- ALGORITHM-LEVEL search space #2: Karatsuba multiplication. To multiply x*y, split each into halves (x=x1*B+x0): the schoolbook way needs 4 sub-multiplies (x0y0, x0y1, x1y0, x1y1); Karatsuba needs only 3 (z0=x0y0, z2=x1y1, z1=(x0+x1)(y0+y1)-z0-z2), trading a multiply for cheap adds. NO compiler turns schoolbook into Karatsuba -- the win is ALGORITHMIC -- so the team's Karatsuba beats whatever gcc/clang/rust emit for the naive bignum multiply, on the right operand sizes. Verified here BY EXECUTION: karatsuba == native over many inputs, and it uses 3 multiplies not 4. (16-bit operands, 8-bit halves, fits i64.)
