Hi, 


I ran 14k iterations, and it cost me $67. What the hell is this price ?

The cost of consuming approximately 1000 hours of computing time.  If all 14,000 passes ran in parallel, you could've burned through 1000 hours of computing time in five minutes.  Or you could run 8 passes at a time on your own computer (if it has that many CPU cores and enough RAM) and have the answer for "free" in five days...

how long did it take ? 

I assume the genetic algorithm was off ?

 
and at the end, they will give the computer owner some cents, and they will keep all for themselves hehehehehehe
