\begin{align*} 4 x^{2} y^{\prime \prime }+y&=0 \end{align*}

Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.003 (sec). Leaf size: 14

dsolve(4*x^2*diff(y(x),x$2)+y(x)=0,y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = \left (\ln \left (x \right ) c_{2} +c_{1} \right ) \sqrt {x} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.017 (sec). Leaf size: 24

DSolve[4*x^2*D[y[x],{x,2}]+y[x]==0,y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(x)\to \frac {1}{2} \sqrt {x} (c_2 \log (x)+2 c_1) \]
