New description:

 Creating a 2000x2000 full matrix is much faster than creating a 500x500
 sparse matrix:

 {{{
 sage: %time A = random_matrix(ZZ,2000)
 CPU times: user 0.97 s, sys: 0.28 s, total: 1.25 s
 Wall time: 1.25

 sage: %time B = random_matrix(ZZ,500,sparse=True)
 CPU times: user 7.20 s, sys: 0.00 s, total: 7.20 s
 Wall time: 7.20
 }}}
