10491 - Cows and Cars

My solution is correct for the test data and it should be efficient. O(1) with some simple calculations. Still I get TLE??
My solution is in Java and I read until EOF so it shouldn't wait for more input I think.

Is the number of test cases extremely large or what am I missing?

Try using BufferedReader and BufferedWriter, or post your code. Someone recently solved it using Java.

Thanks Brian. I used BufferedReader already and buffered output in a StringBuilder before printing everything in a chunk.
Tried again now with a minor change and got AC. Maybe some misfortuned garbage collection or something I haven't understood that TLE'd last time. Anyhow, thnx.
