I've finally completed my assignment of writing a statistical program to select features.....
When I used small datasets of about 5 features...the program works perfect...but when I tried the program with a dataset of 150,000 features......the estimated time to complete the calculation is about 55 hours.......
After 1 hr, only 1.3K of features are calculated...
and the CPU seems to be unusually warm when the program is running.....I can feel hot air constantly blowing towards my hand when I'm using the mouse.....
(I used debugger to estimate the time to load...)
So can you people tell me your experience, what are the possible reasons which cause the program to run so slow...??
