I was wondering if these exist. My last counter of D-Wave is they could be using a good algorithm with specialized ASIC's or regular HPC hardware in a cluster. As in, they're certainly accelerating things but making up the quantum part. That possibility has to be eliminated.

That there's classical algorithms that might get a similar speedup, esp if on custom hardware, validates my prior concern.
