A study of Dijkstra's algorithm across device classes found that memory, not raw speed, decides how long a route search takes.

Dynamic load distribution turns where a route is computed into a runtime decision, and that changes what you have to protect.

The trick is not a faster search. It is a smaller problem to search.
