Does best solution use the fact only positive integers are in test cases?
Otherwise I cannot get prime number size of the the best solution.

I guess that this is probably the case.

Honestly I doubt that you will get an answer from the people who know. Cause there are only three (efe, tails, teebee) - and none of them is active anymore.

I don't expect to get the answer immediately ... may be in several years ;)
It is rather declaration I have looked at the challenge and I totally cannot imagine the solution ...

OK I am stuck on 1x75 now (expecting numbers > 0).
And now on 1x71 (expecting no more numbers on input). Got 1x70, but I have an idea for improving further :).
And now I am no 1x62.
But the king of hill score was decreased during it's first day much further ...

Hi Hippo, I hope you're still reading this after all these years of waiting, and I will hopefully not give too much away when I tell you that all these tiny solutions are based on bucket sort. Good luck!
