We restore Lean3-like behaviour to ext, by keeping track of two discrimation trees. The first is the current behaviour of
ext
, while the second indexes usingwhnf
.See leanprover-community/mathlib4#5191 for examples of how this works out in mathlib4. (That PR is far from exhaustive.)
Obviously this will be slower, but I hope it's considered worth it for the simplifications available in mathlib4. Note this is still much faster than the mathlib3 behaviour (where there wasn't any discrimation tree at all, just a single big bucket of lemmas).

is fast.
