Comment(by kcrisman):

 To release manager: This should probably be marked Invalid or Wontfix.

 The Pynac switch has massively sped up assumptions, so that the timing
 above that was 2.91 s is now about 0.02 s, presumably on a fairly similar
 machine.  In addition, the fix indicated by was is no longer correct (if
 it ever was), because although maxima.eval is indeed faster, it needs to
 have a string passed in, not a string evaluated at a SymbolicExpression...

 Anyway, the proof is in the pudding: with 4.1.1, both with and without the
 appropriate version of the proposed change, assume(x>0) requires 33
 microseconds.  Since that is already 1000 times faster than the fastest
 time above, we probably don't need to worry about this any more.
