Can you please SQUISH the numbers to reduce lag?

Modern chipsets work at 64 bit, which means that calculations can be done on INT64 values just as quickly as any other smaller integer size. For reference…

INT64
A 64-bit signed integer. It has a minimum value of -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 and a maximum value of 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 (inclusive).

Pay attention to the orders of magnitude difference between the maximum value the variable can hold and the number you’re saying is large…
9,223,372,036,854,775,807
0,000,241,000,000,000,000

May I attempt to demonstrate…

The answer’s 625 by the way.
