I think this might be due to #9798 (Accelerate Polyhedron constructor and fix cddlib output ordering) by Volker Braun. I just noticed that toric_variety_library test has dropped to 90s on sage.math, while it used to take twice as long, I think. In this case it is very likely that almost all modules related to toric geometry got a considerable speed up. Note that if #10039 (Make Parma Polyhedra Library a standard library) gets in, we may get another 200s gain, since using PPL as a library compared to cddlib/PALP as system calls speeds up some lengthy computations tenfold instead of "just" twofold (see #10040 for an example).
