I used
-rw-r----- 1 michael michael 66908195 Dec 11  2015 buck480p30_na.mp4
./ffplay buck480p30_na.mp4

(i can upload this if needed, i dont know where its from exactly)

and when seeking around by using the right mouse buttonq it sometimes read
trun chunks with lower times than previous (seen from the av_logs in
there)

I hope i made no mistake and would assume this happens with any file
with these chunks

Asymptotically faster algorithms should always be preferred if you have
asymptotical amounts of data
