    This is only particularly relevant for recursive algorithms with multiple dependencies (I.e. our old favorite the fibonocci sequence).

    That is unless you’re talking about really big problems where you’d want to persist the state to disk as you go so you can resume computation if you, for instance, suffer a power outage while computing step 3,198,217 out of 3,198,218.
