That's really great!
Could we make parallelism configurable? When manually reducing a program, I often run |

This is the rig I've been using to actually run rustlantis. The objective here is to use as much CPU time as possible, and avoid syscalls where reasonable. The less system time, the more responsive the OS remains while rustlantis is running.
Figuring out where the sysroot is and passing through the
rustupproxies is a significant amount of syscall traffic. Avoiding that trims off about a third of all system time.The other change here is making
difftestserial. It is pretty much always more efficient to do parallelism at a higher layer of abstraction, and that's what the scriptfuzz.shdoes; spawningnprocfuzzing instances that are all single-threaded and run completely independently.
