Run times

I agree with your points on this. I would also go on to say that if someone does time two different algo's for the one task then they might want to give 'rounded' or less exacting numbers. X is over two orders of magnitude faster than Y might be better than leaving someone to calculate from run times that X is 123.456 times as fast as Y. --Paddy3118 21:43, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
