As another user said, it’s not the amount of time that affected the result, but the seed (well, plus the fact that the Rust version is consistently slightly worse than the Python version, as Jarrett pointed out above).
Changing the seed has a 50/50 chance of improving/worsening the result. However, I proposed a method that, combined with keeping the old parameters if the new ones are worse, could improve optimization at no cost.
Idk if Jarrett will test it through, and I can’t test it on my own.
(also, this is getting kinda off topic. I described my idea here: Anticipated Features in 24.10 - #38 by Expertium)
