Hah. Any idea why the system admin didn't want you to bubble sort anymore?

Was it noticed to be taxing on some system's resources or too long-running of a process or something?

Yes, that was why. It was long ago, I'm sure it was a particularly inept implementation. He didn't say "don't bubble sort," he said "don't run that anymore."
