my first impressions are that it's an algorithm problem, not a what it's
coded in problem.
if the algorithm is o(n2) then you can't really escape the problem, even
with hardware.
as it is a very real problem for me (and therefore my customers) this is
something i'll be tackling, probably starting in a few days.
i'll post the results in due course.
