I've now ran in something odd. Using a slight variant from my program on
dpaste (can't upload modified version atm but changes are minimal) it takes
0.6 seconds to solve the hard puzzle the python version took 180 seconds
for. Yet on the last puzzle, the impossible one, python takes 1800 seconds
to figure out it's impossible yet mine takes over 3885 seconds. Where is
this slowdown coming from?
