Flint & Robert
I’ve been dissecting a new algorithm that could cut your repair times by 30%. Want to hear the math?
Sure, but cut the chatter. Hit me with the numbers.
The new routine runs in O(n log n) instead of O(n²). For a 1,000‑element dataset it drops from roughly 0.05 seconds to 0.003 seconds on the same hardware—about a 16× speed‑up. The constant factor in the lower‑bound is 1.2× lower, so overall the wall‑clock time is 30 % shorter when you factor in the 5 % overhead for initialization.
That’s a solid improvement, but real runs on the shop’s machines can be trickier. Still, a 30 % cut is worth a look. Let's run a few real jobs and see if the math holds up.
Sure. I'll pull the benchmark harness, feed it the current load profile, and run a batch of 50 jobs. I’ll log the per‑job times and compute the average and variance. If the results deviate from the 30 % figure by more than 5 %, we’ll re‑examine the assumptions. Ready to spin up the tests?
