To increase the speed, we recognize that the number of subproblems is only $O(n)$. That is, in order to calculate $f(n)$ we only need to know $f(n-1),f(n-2), \dots ,f(0)$. Therefore, instead of recalculating these subproblems, we solve them once and then save the result in a lookup table. Subsequent calls will use this lookup table and immediately return a result, thus eliminating exponential work!

Each recursive call will check against a lookup table to see if the value has been calculated. This is done in $O(1)$ time. If we have previously calcuated it, return the result, otherwise, we calculate the function normally. The overall runtime is $O(n)$. This is an enormous improvement over our previous exponential time algorithm!
