No annoying Cloudflare checks + smaller queues :)

    The judge should have extremely powerful hardware to handle that

    Agreed!
    Sadly they're largely incompatible — the Cloudfare checks prevent bot swarming, if not for the checks, the queues would be larger (especially during contests)

    You could take cue from Errichto's video on stress testing, given that you can find AC codes without hassle, you'd just need to write a generator to find failing cases

        Watch the video — if you can cook up a brute-force solution that works, it should be possible. Do note that it would be a time-taking endeavour and may not be worth it in a contest setting

          But if we consider the 5 hours contest, then it is already worth it. Moreover, if you had written it normally, you could use it for all problems.

            Agreed. There's always a trade-off though, and I didn't want to just hand it over as candy to someone starting off as it can be counterproductive as well.

      stress testing is definitely a good skill. But it would still be nice to have the failing test, sometimes I'm to lazy to stress test. Even though the failing test often is big, you can still run your code on it with tons of asserts, or in debug. Basically i just want to find the bug with minimal effort and move on
