If it takes a thousand years to prove a thesis that reduces the solution to a few minutes, what is gained?

I wonder if they could solve Korman’s enigma? 😁

Think what the calculus has done for us. It took well over a thousand years to come up with it.

I assume this means that computer algorithms will compute faster, meaning software can be written that is faster and more efficient, speeding computers up without boosting IP the hardware.
To: Louis Foxwell
It can be applied empirically to speed up large number computations even in the absence of full theoretical proof.

G = N (T - {M + 1,000Y})?
G = gain
N = number of times the calculation is made using the new method
T = time to calculate using the old method
M = a few minutes
Y = years

I think the most valuable lesson to be derived from this exercise is that even the most mundane of issues (long multiplication) is not “settled science”.
