I thought I would post some N-queens runtimes for all to review. These were run using our code that utilized the Parrallel.js library to optimize the work across multiple core cpus. I ran these this morning using my MacBook Pro with a Core i5 at 2.6 GHz and 2 cores.
The machines at Hack Reactor have 4 cores and we were able to run N=19 in 48.5 mins.
Here is the screenshot for 10 to 15.
Here is the screenshot for 16 and 17.
Can’t really run much more as the the run time scales pretty fast. Ultimately, we need to get this distributed across multiple machines.
