Thanks for your quick reply!

This sounds like a good solution. I was trying to solve this problem on my own as well and ended up making a minimal kernel+afl image that I then boot multiple times using deduplication features in order to save RAM (I don't have 256 gig ram like you do in a proper server). Each instance ends up eating quite a lot of RAM even with a limited root filesystem so that's why I wanted to keep it low. I'm on a 2990wx rig which was kind of a disappointment from a fuzzing perspective because of the limited memory bandwidth, but that's for another discussion.

Do think it would be worth trying out that snapshot approach that I linked in the parent comment or it might not be worth it? I was thinking of rebasing their patch onto the latest master and getting it to work again - sadly the authors seem to have abandoned the project, at least there hasn't been any public changes since a year back.
