For my book, where I use *tons* of math in sphinx:

http://theoretical-physics.net/

I also tried mathjax, but some of the pages take forever to load. So I
decided to stick with latex, which is not ideal, but is very robust
and renders fast.

SymPy docs don't contain nearly as much math as
theoretical-physics.net, so I think we can try to use mathjax, and if
it turns out that the experience is worse, we can always revert it
back to latex. So I would give it a shot.
