I think this is due to the speed of the disk on sage.math (where I presume 
Robert did his timings). I assume GAP is used a lot in these files and thus 
there should be harddisk read/writes. I cut the time for 
multi_polynomial_ideal.py to ~1/3 by avoiding the pexpect interface thanks to 
the new awesome libSingular function interface.
