Ok, then go and buy better HW. Maybe it will be sufficient for the next round, but what then? I quess that intel and amd are not fast enough to offer better cpus till end of the contest.
Do you understand, that it's just coincidence that your solution finished in 8:05? It depends on input you received. Next time it will be probably 5, 10 or maybe 1 hour. The point is that you don't know how long will it take and if you have bad algorithm it can easily increase to several hours. Or maybe, if you buy cluster of 100 PCs, then you can be sure. And 1000 will be even better :-) On May 11, 10:27 am, retseta <rets...@gmail.com> wrote: > I don't agree, on large file type computer(his speed) very important, > i solved the problem on 8 min 5 seconds if my PC be faster, i resolved > problem in time > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "google-codejam" group. > To post to this group, send email to google-c...@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > google-code+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group > athttp://groups.google.com/group/google-code?hl=en. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "google-codejam" group.
