Is there a TrollSort? I'm thinking of an algorithm which initially seems to be fast and efficient but takes exponentially longer time with larger arrays and exponentially longer towards the end of sorting.



Not sure if this qualifies, but the first thing that came to mind for me was bogosort sometimes called bozosort. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogosort
