it is normally not considered the best of style to answer ones own
questions, but since those that know the answers have not, i will do it
anyway:
shortest allowed time for a test: 0.01 seconds
max allowed time for a test: 448 seconds
in my book the max time is very generous. if there is a problem with
getting all tests run in a predetermined time i suggest that it is
possible to lower this without hurting the reputation of the shootout.
on my computer the shortest time is very unrealiable (it is the
granularity of the time). i hope that the shootout computer can reliably
measure sub milliseconds, otherwise 0.01 seconds is too short.
