in thread Pattern enumeration.

I'd already switched to the second version, but not the third. When you posted the third version, I roughly calculated that the time that the second version had already been running more than offset the further 25% saving of switching, so I stuck with it.

A day or so later I saw your revised runtime estimates. At that point I suspended the process for a while, but then decided to let the code run to completion. It has currently clocked up 100 hours.

If I am interpreting your numbers correctly--13000 * .6 /60 = 130--it should complete here sometime Wednesday.

    13000 was the estimation I did based on the timings from the 5 year old computer I use at home.

    I run the 8x8,6 case in a fairly new (and underused) server at work and it took just 43 hours to complete.

      It just now completed after 201 hours. It seems that my AV software was particularly interested in it for some reason, which probably slowed it down.
