To run long/background computations I use nohup

$nohup sage <file.py> output.txt &

I also write to a file rather than print as
what-you-print-is-not-what-you-get (in output.txt)

17. Interface issues


17.1 Background jobs
Yes, a SAGE job can be run in the background on a UNIX system. The
canonical thing to do is type

nohup sage < command_file  > output_file &

The advantage of nohup is that SAGE will continue running after you log
out.

Currently SAGE will appears as ``ipython" or ``python" in the output of
the (unix) ``top" command, but in future versions of SAGE it will appears
as ``sage".
