Ok,
I think it's a good idea to bring Wester's tests to maxima and go through.
I think I will try (but not immideatly, rigth now I'm busy with habilitation).
Also there is an interesting website connecting to component tensor
manipulation within maple. It is a good point to check maxima speed on those
problems. From time to time, I hear the claim that maple is the fastest CAS
in world.
best rgds,
