It can now find the first solution in 2 minutes, on my small laptop. A 98.3% reduction in time consumed? That's a nice day's work! Care to share some pseudocode for your algorithm? With that kind of speed, it would seem not so far out of reach for some of the faster handhelds -- at least the ones that can be left on external power for a while. Looking for any past that first one is still likely a pipe dream, however. Then again, perhaps your "small laptop" is speedier than you think! |
