I've been working on 577B - Сумма по модулю, and solved it with 218ms.

I looked into the best solutions, and I found that the ideas are the same, only mine runs much slower.

Here are the two submissions:

285195320 62ms

285195748 218ms

We both use cin/cout and did that sync and tie0 thing, so IO shouldn't be the problem. And actually I think mine should be faster, cause in one loop I only did % operation one time, and I have that break statement.

And check this submission:

285196429

You can see that in test 13, only first 3 number already satisfy the problem, in my program, the remaining 1e6 loops are ignored, but still, 186ms on this test case, why? I'm extremely confused >_<

What to do when solution’s idea is right, but code fails on large test. How to find the bug?
