Yeah, increasing the reproducibility would be a good reason too. Do you
happen to tune the number of files to see if 1000 is a good fit? e.g.
with 100 files test reproduced the overlay bug 20% of times, with 1000
files the reproducibility increased to 80%, etc. And the hole in the
beginning too, what's the actual impact on the reproducibility?
And you're right about the test time, usually we want to balance between
test time and reproducibility too, so we need to tune and measure the
numbers like test files, loop counts etc.
I think these are all good comments for test :)
