All three, though I don't think anything from sympy is used by default.

It will be much better if Sage moves away from Maxima, as your
question nicely illustrates.  Here's a big shout of encouragement to
everybody out there who is working on code to make it so Sage doesn't
depend at all on Maxima for symbolic calculus.

Is it really a bug?  It says "Memory limit reached."  Running out of
memory isn't necessarily a bug.  Computers have finite RAM.

What operating system, computer hardware, etc. are you using?  Without
that info it is very hard to be more helpful.
