      <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;I'm afraid it's difficult to give a detailed answer to such a question.&amp;nbsp; Option &lt;strong&gt;remember&lt;/strong&gt; is certainly useful in some circumstances, but only if the same function is going to be called many times with exactly the same inputs.&amp;nbsp; That may or may not be true in your problem.&amp;nbsp; The &lt;strong&gt;simplify&lt;/strong&gt; function does many different things, and you may get a speedup if you try something more specific (e.g. perhaps what you want is &lt;strong&gt;normal&lt;/strong&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As for parallel processing, you might look at the help pages &lt;a href="http://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=multithreaded"&gt;?multithreaded&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=Grid"&gt;?Grid&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=Threads"&gt;?Threads&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary>
