I think the very first reason is, that the Singular scripting language is strictly inferior to Python (this is why I support Sage). Nevertheless. I just uploaded some nice example to the wiki, for testing your F5 implementation. I was originally provided by Gema Diaz. It is inhomogeneous and the GB is [1]. http://wiki.sagemath.org/days10/CodingSprint?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=gema.sage Slimgb takes about 0.2s (2.2 Ghz Thunderbird). I just tested it with Simons implementation (didn't terminate after a quarter of an hour). Should one of you (Simon, Martin) be able to beat slimgb in this example with an F5 implementation (in particular successivly calculating a GB for the (first) n generators), I'll invite Martin and Simon to a Pizza the next time, I'll see them.
