I did run the test using Live CD 12.04 64-bit. I see the same kind of 
behavior.

May be I should also mention that my machine slows down for things like 
Flash and I am forced to restart my machine during such instances as well ( 
just after watching 3/4 mi of video).  I am not sure if this is  related at 
all.

One more observation was, after a  complete restart, running  ./bin/test 
sympy/test/test_integrals.py does take just under 2 minutes. But, 
subsequent runs slow down drastically and takes up to 50 minutes..

Anyways, I don't plan on spending any more time on this now that I am out 
of the weekend, and plan to switch to 12.04 ubuntu, hoping it will fix my 
flash related problems as well.
