It looks like they aren't run on the run that runs on every pull request https://github.com/sympy/sympy/blob/958cc95aebc35ced70d870586e68d0468684c1a0/asv.conf.actions.json#L67
There are some separate asv.conf.slow.json configurations in the benchmarks repo for people who want to run the slow benchmarks. The benchmarks are still run in the normal asv way of running along a history of commits from time to time, but this is only done manually when someone is interested in doing it. A lot of these benchmarks are only there historically. Many of the SymPy benchmarks predate asv and were moved from the SymPy repo to the benchmarks repo. They need to be cleaned up so that they aren't as slow. In general, I wouldn't necessarily take the SymPy benchmarks to be the gold standard in benchmark suites. There is quite a lot of work that needs to be done there to clean things up and write more/better benmarks, but no one has really had time to do it except on a case by case basis when a benchmark is needed for something or other. It's hard because writing good benchmarks is hard and also because there are literally tens of thousands of functions and behaviors in SymPy that could be benchmarked, so choosing the right things to benchmark is important.
