If your sorting algorithm degrades to anywhere near O(n^2) in pathological cases, you're doing something wrong. And even if it's just a kind of timeout/operations-limit to detect pathological cases and just run an in-place mergesort instead. Tail latency/containing pathological data is quite important if there's any interactivity. |
