The supply and demand exist, and it would be unfortunate to ban the questions altogether. At the same time, I acknowledge that some people find this class of questions uninteresting. That is my main motivation for creating the time-limit-exceeded tag — you can use it to filter out those questions from your front page view. | |

But the question reads: "Why is that code much faster than this code?" and not "How do I get the answer that I need for Project Euler, without it taking 52 hours to compute?". The former I have absolutely no problem with but the second I do, well at least if it is masqueraded as a code review. | |
