Hmmm!

I am a bit confused!
Until now I think Integrate use Simplify not in order
to simplify the input but also to simplify its output.
In fact there was a recent post about a complicated
integral with log where two successive executions
succeded in different outputs! The reason was that
Integrate use even (very little!) FullSimplify to its output.

See here...

To this end, add the following rules

In[24]:=
Unprotect[FullSimplify];
FullSimplify[a___] := Null /; (Print[InputForm[fullsimplify[a]]];
False)
Unprotect[Simplify];
Simplify[a___] := Null /; (Print[InputForm[simplify[a]]]; False)

Then

In[29]:=
Integrate[1/Sqrt[Sin[x]], {x, 0, Pi/2}]

Out[29]=
\!\(2\ EllipticF[=F0\/4, 2]\)

It is clear the attempt to (Full)Simplify the output BUT in very
little timing!
