Comment(by SimonKing):
At http://groups.google.com/group/sage-
devel/browse_thread/thread/863e59ba164590c5 Golam Mortuza Hossain came up
with a still much shorter code snipped that is probably related with this
ticket:
{{{
sage: f(x) = function('f',x);
sage: timeit('bool( f(x) == 0 )')
5 loops, best of 3: 71.6 ms per loop
sage: timeit('bool( f(x) == 0 )')
5 loops, best of 3: 89.1 ms per loop
sage: timeit('bool( f(x) == 0 )')
5 loops, best of 3: 101 ms per loop
sage: timeit('bool( f(x) == 0 )')
5 loops, best of 3: 127 ms per loop
sage: timeit('bool( f(x) == 0 )')
5 loops, best of 3: 159 ms per loop
sage: timeit('bool( f(x) == 0 )')
5 loops, best of 3: 231 ms per loop
sage: timeit('bool( f(x) == 0 )')
5 loops, best of 3: 305 ms per loop
}}}
So, this code should be short enough to clearly point to the source of
trouble. Maxima experts, speak up, please!
