Phil Steitz commented on MATH-1179:
-----------------------------------

Unfortunately, the Monte Carlo method can sometimes take a very long time to 
converge, so you should do multiple runs and use a large number of iterations 
(unfortunately making it even slower) to verify that the results are stable. 

I forgot to add above, if you can see ways to speed up either the Monte Carlo 
or exact implementations, patches are welcome.

> I'm using the kolmogovSmirnovTest method to calculate pvalues.
> However, when i try running the test on two double[] of sizes 5 and 45 the 
> results take over 10 seconds to calculate.
> This seems very long, whereas in R it takes a few miliseconds for the same 
> calculation.
> I'd be very happy to hear any comment you may have on the subject.
