warks's blog

This happened in abc213d.

Diffcheck between the two codes (MLE, AC) shows that they are exactly the same, surprisingly though, the MLE code consumes about 1GB+ memory (and significantly greater time) whereas the AC one only consumes 250MB.

It's been bugging me a lot, why would this happen, can anyone please help?

Thanks in advance.

For reference, this blog discussed a similar issue, though a definitive conclusion was not reached.

Seems like Mike resolved it as both the submissions in that blog display an AC verdict now, is this a platform issue? Should I tag Atcoder admins? Since I am unsure whether it is a language issue or a platform one, I would rather not disturb them for this.

Again, any inputs would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
