> Change Valgrind configuration to run only qdrouterd under valgrind

>                 Key: DISPATCH-1243
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-1243
>             Project: Qpid Dispatch
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Tests
>    Affects Versions: 1.5.0
>            Reporter: Ken Giusti
>            Assignee: Ken Giusti
>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: 1.6.0

> Currently when the unit tests are configured to run with valgrind all spawned 
> executables are run under valgrind.
> This means that in addition to qdrouterd running under valgrind things like 
> unit2, qdstat, qdmanage, etc are also run under valgrind.
> I propose that we should only be running qdrouterd under valgrind - running 
> anything else under valgrind slows down the unit test runs and really doesn't 
> help achieve the goal of testing the qdrouterd server.
> For example simply running the system_tests_qdstat under valgrind results in 
> the following:
>  ctest -R qdstat
> Test project /home/kgiusti/work/dispatch/qpid-dispatch/BUILD
>     Start 27: system_tests_qdstat
> 1/1 Test #27: system_tests_qdstat ..............   Passed  102.40 sec
> 100% tests passed, 0 tests failed out of 1
> Total Test time (real) = 102.41 sec
> [kgiusti@localhost BUILD (fix-valgrind)]$ find . -name "valgrind*.xml" | wc
>     128     128    8342
> [kgiusti@localhost BUILD (fix-valgrind)]$ find . -name "valgrind*.xml" -exec 
> grep "<exe>" {} \; | grep -v valgrind | grep -v qdrouterd | wc
>     122     122    5940
> [kgiusti@localhost BUILD (fix-valgrind)]$ find . -name "valgrind*.xml" -exec 
> grep "<exe>" {} \; | grep -v valgrind | grep qdrouterd | wc
>       6       6     150
> In other words valgrind was invoked 128 times during the test run, of which 
> only 6 times was it run on qdrouterd.  122 times valgrind was invoked on 
> something else.
> Further analysis show what those 122 valgrind runs operated on:
> ....
>     <exe>/usr/bin/unit2</exe>
>     <exe>/usr/bin/unit2</exe>
>     <exe>/usr/bin/unit2</exe>
>     <exe>/usr/bin/unit2</exe>
> ....
>     <exe>/home/kgiusti/work/dispatch/qpid-dispatch/tools/qdstat</exe>
>     <exe>/home/kgiusti/work/dispatch/qpid-dispatch/tools/qdstat</exe>
>     <exe>/home/kgiusti/work/dispatch/qpid-dispatch/tools/qdstat</exe>
>     <exe>/home/kgiusti/work/dispatch/qpid-dispatch/tools/qdstat</exe>
>     <exe>/home/kgiusti/work/dispatch/qpid-dispatch/tools/qdstat</exe>
> ....
> We certainly shouldn't be running unit2 under valgrind, and I would argue 
> running qdstat - a python utility - under valgrind is mostly useless as it 
> primarily tests the python executable.
