I guess the point/challenge is: make a program that will only benefit from
really long analysis like say 10-30 hours, and don't go for anything but the
best regardless of loss in speed and primary evaluation. A program that is the
ideal of if you had 200-300 Ghz computers, a program that you wouldn't even
think of making today because hardware is "too slow"
If indeed this could be done...
