Finding bitprecision 

Should not there be O(1) way to find the current localbitprecision()?

  (22:17) gp > localprec(10000);   my(s); for(n=1,100000,  s+=bitprecision(1.));
  time = 78 ms.
  (22:17) gp > localprec(1000000); my(s); for(n=1,100000,  s+=bitprecision(1.));
  time = 2,121 ms.

Thanks,
Ilya
