multithreading fork

[caballomaldito]

Hi!

by default, FOE selects a seedfile, open the program with the seedfile as parameter, wait X seconds and close the program, its ok, but is one by one, so very slow :(

Is posible to configure the forks to improve the speed of FOE?, i mean, configure FOE to select 50 seedfiles at once and run the program simultaneously # #

First, make sure you are using BFF 2.8. Unless you are using a GUI application, the fuzzing will be CPU bound. Even with GUI apps, there is CPU monitoring.

Because we can't be sure that the target application is multiprocess compatible, we can't run more than one instance of it. Therefore to scale BFF, the solution is multiple VMs.
