This is achieved by splitting the query into two pieces: (1) trace flow from indefinitely large object creation to len(...) calls, then (2) considering those particular len(...) calls as taint propagators, trace taint from the same sources all the way to an allocation call. This is more accurate than the previous solution, which considered any len(...) call to propagate taint, potentially confusing an array that stored a large value in one of its cells for an array which is itself of large size.
