Those are rather strange, yea. Unfortunately both report a relatively large number of changes since the last run... > I'd say we have a problem.

It seems likely that that would show up more widely. Oddly enough other CLOBBER_CACHE animals, like http://pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=jaguarundi&dt=2015-02-12%2013%3A03%3A00 , that run more frequently have not reported a problem. Neither has leech which IIRC runs on the same system... One avenue to look are my changes around both buffer pinning and interrupt handling...
