 \point{Are generated proofs minimal?}
 
 Automatic provers frequently use many more facts than are necessary.
-Sledgehammer inclues a minimization tool that takes a set of facts returned by a
-given prover and repeatedly calls the same prover, \textit{metis}, or
-\textit{smt2} with subsets of those axioms in order to find a minimal set.
-Reducing the number of axioms typically improves Metis's speed and success rate,
-while also removing superfluous clutter from the proof scripts.

 In earlier versions of Sledgehammer, generated proofs were systematically
 accompanied by a suggestion to invoke the minimization tool. This step is now
-performed implicitly if it can be done in a reasonable amount of time (something
-that can be guessed from the number of facts in the original proof and the time
-it took to find or preplay it).

-In addition, some provers do not provide proofs or sometimes produce incomplete
-proofs. The minimizer is then invoked to find out which facts are actually needed
-from the (large) set of facts that was initially given to the prover. Finally,
-if a prover returns a proof with lots of facts, the minimizer is invoked
-automatically since Metis would be unlikely to re-find the proof.
