To be clear here, the take home code challenge was designed to take about an hour. We tried to design this to be respectful of people's time and with the assumption that people aren't just applying to our job.

understood. The ones I've been doing are on average 4 hrs ( eg: https://mesosphere.com/careers/challenges/distributed-applic...). Did one last week that was 7 hrs.

I am just tired and exhausted at this point.
