I think that libsvm fits some kind of logistic regression on top of the SVM when `probability=True` (as described by Platt) so there's an overhead. But I'm curious why `OneVsRestClassifier` doesn't detect that `SVC` has a `decision_function` method. Normally, it falls back to `predict_proba` only when `decision_function` is not present.
