    @rxin I actually favor the current partition algo, it's pretty neat in a 
way, for example
    
    lowerBound = 1
    upperBound = 100
    numPartition = 8
    
    With fix length increase, you get 
    [1,13],[14,26],[27,39],[40,52],[53,65],[66,78],[79,91],[92,100]
    In which you always end up with one small partition at the end
    
    With the current algo you get
    [1,12],[13,25],[26,37],[38,50],[51,62],[63,75],[76,87],[88,100]
    You get more evenly distributed partitions
