I'd actually encourage trying to use the opcode cache because this way the optimization will be more generic. E.g. `decimal + decimal` would also be specialized via the cache, because you'd cache a pointer to the specific `+` operator implementation. I'm really not sure that adding specialized byte code is a good idea.

While at it, maybe we push the number of bits per int digit to 60?

While at it, I'd also increase the digit size
