Different schemes for fast symplectic tracking suited for different degrees of nonlinearity of the original map are presented. The fact that different approaches sometimes produce different long term results shows that symplectification is not the cure of all evil and should be used cautiously. It also suggests to use a symplectification scheme which changes the original map by the least amount possible.
