> Maybe we hsould open a "metaticket" to track this regression and point
there to tickets that will actually fix each of these regressions?
To my understanding, the memory leak fixes are fine up to and including
#12215. One could argue that the ticket from here is also fixing a general
memory leak, and fixing a general leak counts more than a few speed
regressions in specialised code. But one could argue that we should be
happy to have the fixes up to #12215 in the next Sage release, and should
not spoil it with several speed regressions - hence, #12313 should not be
merged until we found a way to lift the regression.
I don't know what Jeroen prefers.
If he intends to merge #12313 soon, then it would make sense to change
#13911 into a task (=metaticket), the original purpose of #12313 probably
being solved by #13605.
If he intends to not merge #12313 before all regressions are solved, then
I see no benefit in crating a separate metaticket. Instead, one should put
#12313 as "needs work" and create new tickets for the separate aspects of
regression, making them dependencies for #12313.
