Time limit exceeded in c++14 but accepted in c++20(64 bit, winlibs)
By Rafi, 22 months ago, In English

I have submitted the following code in c++14, where I used policy based data structure(pbds), which didn't passed due to tle in the system test. In c++17, the result is also tle.

But I submitted the same code with c++20(64 bit, winlibs) and got accepted.

What is the reason? Can anyone help?

It may be due to some compiler optimizations in the newer compiler that may have better optimization techniques that can make the code run faster, thus avoiding the TLE error.

the simple reason is that 64bit runs much faster than 32bit
