Comment (by fuglede):

 The above commits introduce caching in a number of ways, building on your
 comments. For the TL representation, the actual TL-part of the algorithm
 (which is independent of choices of variables) is cached in all cases. The
 actual (memory heavy) result is stored for the typical case where no
 variable is specified. The Markov traces and Jones polynomials have been
 setup so that the combinatorial part of the calculation is done over the
 general ring; the result of this is cached, and when the user specifies a
 variable, substitution is carried out on this cached result. I think this
 strikes the perfect balance.

 Also, as suggested by tscrim, the paradigm of supplying the variable as a
 generator of some polynomial ring, rather than specifying a string and the
 ring, has been pushed.
