Abstract: We study moduli stabilization in Calabi-Yau orientifold compactifications of type IIB string theory with O3- and O7-planes. We consider a Calabi-Yau three-fold with Hodge number $h^{2,1}=50$ and stabilize all axio-dilaton and complex-structure moduli by three-form fluxes. This is a challenging task, especially for large moduli-space dimensions. To address this question we develop an algorithm to generate $10^5$ flux vacua with small flux number $N_{mflux}$. Based on recent results by Crin`o et al. we estimate the bound imposed by the tadpole-cancellation condition as $N_{mflux}leqmathcalO(10^3)$, however, the smallest flux number we obtain in our search is of order $N_{mflux}=mathcalO(10^4)$. This implies, in particular, that for all solutions to the F-term equations in our data set the tadpole conjecture is satisfied.
