 Hi Jeroen,

 These look good to me in principle and execution.  I can't vouch for all
 the mathematics affected, but maybe no one reviewer could?  I'll run tests
 overnight.  In the meantime two questions/comments:

  * I can see the times given being meaningless to anybody a few years in
 the future.  8 seconds?  When and where?  (Especially if in 3 years
 Moore's Law has it running in 2 seconds on new hardware.)  Would it be
 easy to say "# longtime (8s on sage.math, 2011)"?  Could you do that to
 the patch with a bit of grep/sed magic?

  * {{{sage/schemes/elliptic_curves/sha_tate.py}}} had two changes I was
 unsure about.  First, a test related to #10096 is deleted.  Is there a
 reason?  Second, some tests ("supersingular cases") are claimed to be the
 "easiest" possible and a comment to that effect is being deleted.  I'd
 even suggest with al the time savings, the rank 1 test could be sent to
 the "short time" category?  Not everybody runs long tests, so it'd be good
 to catch as much possible with the standard suite, and this sounds like a
 good candidate.

 Great job cleaning up the tests, and the code in places!  I'm amazed none
 of my tests got caught up in this.

 You didn't like "oyoyoy a bug" for an assert statement??  ;-)
