Fix caching for mutable surfaces #290

Closed saraedum closed 4 months ago

saraedum commented 4 months ago

we must not cache anything for surfaces that are mutable. However, once a surface becomes immutable, we enable caching which is as fast as SageMath's native cached method.

We checked with %timeit that this approach does the trick.

@videlec I hope you agree that this is a nice feature and not too crazy a hack :)
