Such a weird thing to get through QA

I wonder, does anyone here that does computational physics, ever actually multiply numbers together that have more than 96 digits?

Q: Did the 2019 discovery of O(N log(N)) multiplication have a practical outcome?

Some time ago I've read this news article, Mathematicians Discover the Perfect Way to Multiply, reporting a discovery published in 2019, where Harvey and Hoeven[1] found a algorithm able to execute multiplication in $N \log N$ steps. Compare with the $N^2$ we are used to while doing multiplicati...
