I posted some remarks on the ticket. My initial benchmarks suggest that John's implementation of AGM may be about 10 times slower than PARI's, and that Magma's (which is only in the real case) may be 10 times faster than PARI... making John's 100 times slower than Pari? Hopefully I'm wrong, but that's what I get. So I hope there is a way to speed it up by more than a factor of 2 or 3. -- William -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
