OK. But anyway, using your approach, I found number sequences that force the
program to work really hard. Now I'm analyzing them and perhaps I'll find a
way to defeat Murphy once more...

My apologies. I was updating the wrong ends of the array which is why
it defeated all the optimisations. Sorry. I take it all back, I can't
find a data set which messes it up either 
One small point: if the highest value in the array is a partition all
by itself, eg {111,9,9,9,9,9,5,1,1,1}, then the partitions are
correctly printed but BestVal is zero.
