 All operations above use immutable `Math` (the default). fab2s/math wins every operation except base-16 conversion, where brick/math delegates to GMP's native hex output. The speed advantage comes from keeping bcmath's C-level string arithmetic as the hot path for decimal operations, while brick/math pays for an extra object-wrapping layer on top of GMP. Integer-only operations (`mod`, `pow`, `powMod`, base conversion) use GMP directly when the extension is available, combining the best of both backends. Realistic workflows like chained calculations or 100-iteration accumulations show a consistent 3-5x advantage, with immutability costing only a lightweight `clone` per operation (two properties: a string and an int).
 
 `MathMutable` eliminates the clone overhead entirely for hot loops:

-| accumulate 100 | **38.086μs (±2.0%)** | 41.339μs (±2.5%) | 147.063μs (±0.4%) |

+| chained workflow | **1.018μs (±0.2%)** | 1.189μs (±3.0%) | 5.352μs (±1.2%) |
+| accumulate 100 | **17.499μs (±1.1%)** | 20.765μs (±2.3%) | 74.043μs (±0.5%) |
