True. I’d be curious whether a combination of matching comp/training cutoff and censoring web searches could yield a more precise evaluation.

as its from 2024 (MaxSAT was not held in 2025), its quite likely all the solvers are in the training data. so the interesting part here is the instances for which we actually got better costs that what is currently known (in the best-cost.csv) file.

As GP noted the issue is that even better versions than competed in MaxSAT are likely in the training data or web resources.
