asciilifeform: say, 1000 * 0010 . ( i won't clutter the log with the steps, will leave as exercise. )
asciilifeform: so for concrete case, 0011 * 0110 :
asciilifeform: let's formalize the problem statement. N is integer, N>1 . x, y are int, 0 <= x < 2^N; 0 <= y < 2^N. determine an f, such that f(x,y) is true iff x*y >= 2^2N ; such that complexity of f is less than that of * operation.
asciilifeform: 0011 ( 2 ) * 0111 ( 1 ) = 00010101 = 0001 : 0101 ( 3 )
asciilifeform: 0011 ( 2 ) * 0110 ( 1 ) = 00010010 = 0001 : 0010 ( 3 )
asciilifeform: 111 * 001 = 111 ( 0, 2, 0 leading 0s ) no overflow...
asciilifeform: 101 * 010 = 001010 (we end up with 010 )
mircea_popescu: meanwhile 255 * 255 does not overflow ; you know this because 8 + 8 is not < 16.
mircea_popescu: if l1 of x1 added to the l2 of x2 exceeds N then it doesn't represent x1 * x2
asciilifeform: 1xx * 0 = 0 .
mircea_popescu: 1x * 1y will never result in a 0y no matter what happens!
mircea_popescu: 85 * 97 overflew if the result is not led by a 7.

mircea_popescu: consider eg a * b > a + b. this is basically cauchy pared down. that there's no direct path from one to the other is the only last nail of hope (but mp, just because we've not found yet why it's fundamental doesn't prove it isn't. sure.)

asciilifeform: however block index is not large -- say we have 500,000 blocks, and you want to know where on disk lives its beginning, and your disk takes 64bit lba addressor. so you need 500,000 * 8bytes == 4,000,000 bytes ! 3 floppy's worth
mircea_popescu: and i'll compute 2 * maxint/2 faster than you'll seek maxint/2
