Since the contest is nearing its end, all teams are submitting overall solutions, which means very long running time for each solution. I have waited for 5h but the queue didn’t move. Please consider increasing the number of nodes, thanks.

@dylanliu Thank you for flagging this. Unfortunately, we only have certain number of nodes available to us, so we cannot add additional nodes.

Note that we do currently have a node set aside for smoke test submissions only, so folks can iterate more quickly on solutions. So you can expect any smoke test submissions to run quickly.
