Number of enclaves in an application

How many enclave containers can be created within a application?

Hi there.

It really depends on the size of the enclaves dealt with by your application. I did some experimenting a while ago, and I was able to instantiate over a thousand enclaves before running out of EPC.

Hi Rodolfo,

Thanks for your answer.

As you said, an application can have multiple enclaves in it. So, in this case, whenever the teardown phase happens, OS needs to call EREMOVE instructions to destroys each of these enclaves individually.

I mean for each enclave, we will have an independent enclave life cycle. Please correct me, If I am wrong somewhere.
