Elkies If all you can hope to save is a fractional power of $\log n$ then you ought to keep track of powers of $\log n$ in the computation model and complexity estimates; and then, even if you use repeated addition rather than multiplication to get each row of the multiplication table, the direct method seems to take $n^2 \log n$ time and space if you count honestly (i.e. $\log n$ bits for a number of size $n$).
