Hi,

I tried some random benchmarks and things look pretty good -- nothing
I tried was disturbingly slow -- even pexpect is reasonable.


Thanks, that's good to know. I wouldn't expect anything to be slow
computation-wise--I *would* expect starting up subprocesses to be
noticeably slower, but at least once they're started communication should
be fairly expedient as in pexpect. There shouldn't be too much overhead for
most IPC methods.

I do wish Sage had more benchmark tests since I don't personally have a
firm grasp on how fast many things should be. In the past I've recommended
Airspeed Velocity for this...

Doing plot(sin) in a terminal claims to launch a png viewer, but
doesn't do anything, so maybe you can add that to your todo list.


Right, I had noticed that as well and meant to mention it as an open issue.
I think it should be fixable...
