Comment (by vdelecroix):

 When the polynomial is of degree 0 it would also be faster to actually
 also relies on `nth_root`:
 {{{
 sage: %timeit 27.nth_root(3)
 1000000 loops, best of 3: 388 ns per loop
 sage: %timeit 27 ** (1/3)
 100000 loops, best of 3: 7.51 µs per loop
 }}}
 As `nth_root` should be guaranteed to return an element of the same ring
 there will also be much less coercion involved.
