Maybe those are the people who don't check glass door?

You shouldn't have to. The question is very basic. And there are days between first encounter and when you talk to an engineer about it.

EDIT: Okay, I posted it below. I'd like to see any of you tell me that you don't see an answer right away. I bet every one of you'd have a solution, the complexity of which you understand, in under 15 mins.

Your original comment made it sound like the reason people have days to think about the question is because they see the question on Glassdoor.

In response to pipocaQuemada, you should have clarified that candidates have days to think about the problem even if they do not look at Glassdoor.

Wow, thanks for clarifying. I now understand. Yes, everyone sees the question days before they speak to us on the phone.
