Would it be reasonably complicated and/or meaningful, to get ecj to evolve some sub-set of the ecj settings? I'm working on a project, where I'd like to determine what effects different settings have on the outcome. Settings such as population sizes, mutation frequencies, migration and such. Instead of manually setting up a thousand runs with different settings, I'm wondering if ECJ could be tasked with handling this? The fitness for the meta-ecj could be calculated from for example the average time it takes the "normal" ecj to reach a certain fitness level. The main question in my mind right now is how one would express a settings-file in a evolvable fashion. Any comments, pratical or theoretical, would be interesting.
