HI Weldon,
On a 2 cpu smp RHEL4 box:
- on RI the modified test always passes
- DRLVM always fails with OOME when trying to spawn threads
On a 2 cpu XP box:
- RI kills the "occupy" thread( I thought this is really
smart ), but
passes
- DRLVM sometimes passes, sometimes hangs, occassionally reports
invalid
memory references, VM launcher errors etc. etc.
