It did run once upon a time. I'll try and see if I can figure out
when that was.

Which one failed in 64 bit mode? The basic stress.Mix or Weldon's
MegaSpawn?
And did it hang, or run out of memory? Running out of memory on
these 64
bit
systems is not easy even under the conditions of this test.

I am a little confused too. The stress.Mix test can randomly land
up doing
unbounded thread creation( as in Weldon's repro case )...and I
would think
that it is not unreasonable to fail in such a case. The RI fails
too. But
I
don't understand how it never failed before.
I attempted to determine if there ever was an old svn revision that
would
pass stress.Mix test on my rhel 2-way SMP box. Unfortunately the
unified
classlib/vm build changed the how one gets an old revision from the
repository. I don't know if its worth trying to resurect an old svn
revision. I am hoping someone will confirm if stress.Mix ever ran
successfully on 2-way and 4-way boxes. This seems way easier than
trying to
reconstruct old build.xml files.
