That's right. Either we can make sympy automatically discover that it runs inside sage and use sage's fast functions if available, or just prepare it so that it's easy to "patch" it on the fly inside sage. BTW, I just tried some things in wxmaxima, like series expansion and maxima is very fast, compared to sympy.
