Use Z3 in multicore server

Question

I want to set up a system that will be fully dedicated to Z3. Let's say it has 4 cores and I would like to use all the power of the machine.

I will be solving large formulas that have around 1000 incremental asserts.

I would like to solve the formulas in a parallel fashion. I've read this question and I see that a unique Context should be created for every instance solving a formula.

My question then is, what is the most optimal way to use the full system resources (4 cores) and solving formulas with incremental asserts? Should I create a context per core and somehow sync the push and pops along them to incrementally solve the formulas?

Thanks

Answer 1

Expressions created via one context can not be used in another context. So, yes, if those cores/contexts need the same expressions, they will have to be copied and/or translated (see also Z3_translate ).
