Hello! In the discussion about my (potential) participation in GSOC2013 ( see https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/sage-gsoc/J-oU64VM7Pw ) we came to the conclusion that it would be nice to address the following performance issues :
1. Slow performance of combinatorial functions (combination, Cartesian product...) 2. Very slow performance of vertex neighbor queries for graphs 3. Slow startup of Sage 4. Optimized linear algebra over small fields with M4RI See also here : http://azi.dev.si/GSOC2013_proposal2.html Of course doing all the listed things may be too much hence we could focus on the ones the Sage community thinks are the most important. The main issue now is that we need to find a potential mentor for this project or at least someone that can decide in which direction to push this project. Hence I am posting this here in case anyone is willing to take part in this! Best, Jernej -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
