Good to hear!

On my Linux laptop (Intel Core i7-6700HQ), with nproc=8, nabla(g) takes 5 s and the computation of the Ricci tensor takes 27 s. Regarding caching, nabla(T), where T is any tensor field, is not cached, even if T=g. The cached operations are g.connection() g.ricci() g.riemann() Best regards, Eric. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
