Maybe you should give a try with mathematica, the function is BellB[n] It is much faster than maple.
bell(1000) takes forever to compute and almost instantly with mathematica.
Jack Schmidt just wrote on the sage-devel mailing list that GAP takes under a second to compute Bell(1000) - that means that SAGE would also compute it under a second because it uses GAP's Bell, http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/doc/html/ref/module-sage.combinat.co... Alec
