I understand your situation, it often happens to me. Sometimes, the papers I read aren't detailed enough to obtain a working implementation and I have to start from scratch. I thought that it wasn't critical as I was working on calculations that wouldn't have to be performed when responsiveness is crucial but when the datasets are big, either the memory consumption becomes insane (more than 60 GB in my optimizer without using a sparse array) or it takes so long (more than a day?) that it can't be easily tested.

I've just repaired the computation of largest rectangles. By the way, very well documented source code is easier to maintain on the long term. I just look for the largest full areas in descending order and it works. It's very naive but it's fast enough for now. As I separate the considerations and as I have some strong unit tests, I could replace this implementation by a better one later without having to modify large parts of the source code.
