The size of queue is getting very large during execution you can either use set like this solution and clear the entry for v line number 29 this will restrict the size of set to at max O(N) http://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/20/submission/43596615

or like this solution you can free some memory by clearing the vectors you are not going to use. http://mirror.codeforces.com/contest/20/submission/43596568

    But I can not understand how the set (is it work like priority queue ? )work in here please can you explain it .

      the purpose of priority queue is to extract the minimum element. In set the 1st element is the smallest element. While set provide an option to erase a element while the same operation is not supported in priority queue. priority queue is implemented as Heap while set is implemented as red black tree(Binary search tree)

          Actually, set has higher overhead compared to priority queue due to additional book-keeping such as balancing. In this case, blue__legend was able to achieve a much better runtime and memory limit because of the fact that we can efficiently search for and remove irrelevant nodes from the set, whereas we can't do so in a priority queue.

          Anyway, I think that your main problem is that you didn't terminate your loop, in your dijkstra shortest path implementation, when your destination has been visited. As such, a lot of irrelevant nodes might be stored in the priority queue and cause the MLE to occur.
