Huge "Running Time" Difference in Identical Codes (LeetCode Online Judge)

Revision en11, by vok8, 2020-05-27 21:27:19

  • Submission-1: (AC - 856 ms)


  • Submission-2: (AC - 1824 ms)


The Code

  • The code in the above 2 submissions is wholly same/identical (Not even a single bit in the codes is differing).

  • I ain't getting what could be the reason of such a huge time difference between the running time of fully identical codes. I mean, 30-100 ms difference is fine, as that can be there, due to server load and/or some other server related stuff. But, the difference is ~1 second, which seems very weird and strange.

  • For checking the correctness of what I have experienced, you can try submitting the above code 2-3 times continuously, after some 2-3 min stretch, between each submission. I think, you will get my doubt perfectly, then!

  • Can someone please explain, what can be the reason behind this huge "running time" difference?

  • Thank you!
