It's not a long time back when Pari *was* integrated with Maxima
(the code might still be there, or maybe not) but Maxima used
Pari code only for arbitrary precision computations.
A while back our yearned Mr. Schelter integrated gmp code
in Maxima which is (he said) much faster, although gmp
doesn't have the goodies that Pari does.
