That suggests the bottleneck is disk I/O.  Sage is quite large, so
it's not a surprise.  Anything you to slim down the software will make
it "snappier" under load, and this is actually true at all levels of
the memory hierarchy.  Since Sage tries to be inclusive, you might try
just slimming down the average case.  How many libraries really need
to be loaded at startup, etc?  This is usually difficult to do.  But
for public servers it's unavoidable, and for software that runs in a
"cloud", bloat = $$$.
