Original report by Garth N. Wells (Bitbucket: garth-wells, GitHub: garth-wells).


Using SymPy in FIAT is like using a sledgehammer to crack a peanut.

It's a heavy dependency that imports a lot of files, which can slow import.

Also, the SymPy Debian/Ubuntu packages pull in a lot of very large package dependencies, e.g. texlive. This blows out the size of virtual images and Linux containers.
