Hi,
One question regarding the performance of the algorithm.
It's stated that for puzzle #120, the :
Quote
Expected time: ~2 months on 256 Tesla V100.
This is really mind boggling  Shocked. But does someone know how long it took  (or a time approximation) to solve puzzle #115 using 4 Tesla V100 ?
To me it took (60/2^5)*(256/4)= 4 months, which is surely not reasonnable.

#110 about  2  days on 256 Tesla V100
#115 about 11 days on 256 Tesla V100

4 Tesla V100 ~~ should be 256/4=64
It takes 64 times ~~~
about 1 day (very lucky) ~ 704 days ( maybe it will take longer )
