I see this concern. I thought a bit more about this during the day. The computational power required could be reduced if you stored the generated inputs and present them to the user if he requests additional help.

Given this, this system could be extended using a rating-system by users ("Click here if this input helped you solve the issue"). This would overall result in a bunch of inputs being generated (basically whenever someone needs a new input), and some edge case inputs will overall bubble to the top, because they are rated helpful more often than others.

Anyway, I'm happy to help. Good luck :)

Cool, this one is a very good idea actually, a user generated database of test cases for each puzzle! I'm putting it in our backlog, thank you very much!
