Using a full build of sage-4.7.alpha4, after a couple of tests to get Sage "hot", ./sage -t -long "devel/sage/sage/sandpiles/sandpile.py" Total time for all tests: 18.9 seconds Using an upgrade to sage-4.7.alpha3 from a full build of sage-4.7.alpha2, again after a couple of tests to heat up this version, ./sage -t -long "devel/sage/sage/sandpiles/sandpile.py" Total time for all tests: 16.2 seconds Not sure why the time difference between the two versions, but I did this several times and it's quite repeatable.
