'''Increasing Processing Time Debate'''

Overall, the idea of increasing the processing time per turn for bots in the robocode engine is met with mixed reactions. Some see it as an opportunity to implement more complex strategies, such as better movement algorithms or enemy simulators. Others argue that the potential gains from these slower algorithms may be outweighed by the increased time needed for testing and development. Some suggest that a "FastBots" league, with a more reliable and stable control over processing limits, may be a more viable solution. Ultimately, it seems that the community is divided on whether or not increasing processing time would lead to significant improvements in bot performance.
