Expensive. If it helps, I ran klee for 5 hours on the most recent version of find with the following settings: klee --simplify-sym-indices --write-cvcs --write-cov --output-module --max-memory=2000 --disable-inlining --optimize --use-forked-solver --use-cex-cache --libc=uclibc --posix-runtime --external-calls=all --only-output-states-covering-new --use-query-log=solver:smt2 --env-file=test.env --run-in-dir=/tmp/sandbox --write-smt2s --max-sym-array-size=4096 --max-time=300min --watchdog --max-memory-inhibit=false --max-static-fork-pct=1 --max-static-solve-pct=1 --max-static-cpfork-pct=1 --switch-type=internal --search=random-path --search=nurs:covnew --use-batching-search --batch-instructions=10000 findutils-4.9.0/obj-llvm/find/find.bc -sym-args 0 3 20 -sym-files 1 40 -sym-stdin 40 There are 10 queries listed as taking over 100s in the solver-queries.smt2 file, but when I ask STP to solve them, it takes somewhere between 0.6 and 1.7 seconds to solve. Are you using the solvers in the container directly or via kleaver? > The results described above, directly in the container. However, I have replicated it on a full install of klee with Z3. Should I be using kleaver? Sorry for the duplicate message. I just realized I didn't reply all.
