Comment #1 on issue 3086 by smi...@gmail.com: round() function overrides built-in
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=3086

Unlike __int__ there is not way to keep the same name for round, so I made it to default quickly to python's built-in. The time difference is < 3%. Is this significant enough to warrant having to use a different name?

from sympy.functions.elementary.miscellaneous import _pyround
from timeit import timeit
timeit('_pyround(randint(1,1000000))','from sympy.functions.elementary.misc
llaneous import _pyround\nfrom random import randint')
2.8012628194217446
timeit('round(randint(1,1000000))','from sympy.functions.elementary.miscell
neous import _pyround\nfrom random import randint')
2.8702862158276918

(If the name change is deemed necessary, I would prefer a non-caps name like `rounded` since, unlike Abs, it isn't a class.)
