AVD Snapshot Caching

Docker-only execution

All commands run inside Docker containers. Use the provided scripts.

AVD snapshot caching allows faster emulator startup by reusing saved snapshots.

Modes​

The SWE-bench runner supports two explicit modes:

  • --avd-rehydrate (default): rehydrate + snapshot (fast quickboot if available)
  • --avd-cold-boot: cold boot (no rehydrate, no snapshot, wipe data)

Examples​

Run the command below from the repo root in Docker:

# Fast mode (default)
./scripts/run_all_tasks.sh --task django__django-10914 --avd-rehydrate

# Cold boot
./scripts/run_all_tasks.sh --task django__django-10914 --avd-cold-boot

When rehydrate is enabled, the emulator uses existing snapshots when available.
