From: "William Stein" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Thanks. I've fixed this for sage >= 2.7.3 in the attached patch.
Just upgraded SAGE to 2.7.3 and number_of_partitions works twice as fast as in 2.7.2 with algorithm='bober' for 10^9 - it took 112 sec in 2.7.2 and only 56 sec in 2.7.3. This is in Ubuntu 7.04 on Dual Core 64-bit 2.6GHz Athlon with 2 GB RAM. By the way, to compare with other systems, SAGE 2.7.2 installation took about 53 minutes. I noticed the following interesting thing with time measuring: assigning number_of_partitions to a variable (that shouldn't take time at all), took about 10% or more of total time. For example, sage: time number_of_partitions(10^7) took about 0.8 sec while sage: time a=number_of_partitions(10^7) took slightly more than 1 sec. For 10^8 the corresponding times were 5 sec and 5.45 sec. That seems odd, isn't it?
