\begin{align*} a y^{\prime \prime }&=y^{\prime } \end{align*}

Solution by Maple

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

dsolve(a*diff(y(x),x$2)=diff(y(x),x),y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y \left (x \right ) = c_{1} +c_{2} {\mathrm e}^{\frac {x}{a}} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.017 (sec). Leaf size: 19

DSolve[a*D[y[x],{x,2}]==D[y[x],x],y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(x)\to a c_1 e^{\frac {x}{a}}+c_2 \]
