Subject: Ruffian's blind spot

Author: Will Singleton

Date: 20:46:58 05/19/03


I was trying to figure out why my latest build doesn't do quite as well on
ecm86, and I ran Ruffian on it.  To my surprise, Ruffian couldn't solve it, even
given 5 minutes.  This is odd, since most other progs can do it in less than 10
seconds.  (What I take away from this exercise is that my program must now be
stronger.  Otherwise, I'd have to work on the problem, which is much less
interesting than testing new ideas.)
