Recursive CTE are really fun to : - describe algorithms in sql, - measure sql motor speed.
For the hardest sudoku at hand that I have: '8..........36......7..9.2...5...7.......457.....1...3...1....68..85...1..9....4..' - my badly written sql takes about 3'40", (on my windows pc) - your neater version takes about 7'20",(on my windows pc) ==> Do you see the same ratio ? I don't catch why yours is slower. Anyway, SQLite speed is in the same ballpark as postgresql (9.2.1). ==> Awesome ! Apparently, the RECURSIVE CTE design stucks all algorithms execution in a mono-process mode. ==> If someone as a solution to make this sudoku algorithm parallelized on SQL, I would be VERY interested to read his trick. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
