Ok I'm starting to understand things a little better.  The transaction 
255911127406517196 was the last transaction who's references were added to the 
object_ref table.  But (I'm guessing because I interrupted the pack) it didn't 
get marked in the transaction table as packed.  In fact there are 11088 
transactions in this state.  Below are the details.  I haven't fully understood 
the code yet (and its getting too late for productive thinking :) ) but I see 
to potential solutions: 

1. Mark the transactions that have been moved to object_ref as packed but I'm 
guessing though that this isn't a good idea because there is other stuff that 
needs to happen during the pack.

2. Remove the unpacked transactions from the object_ref table. (this seems very 
scary to me).

I will continue looking at the code tomorrow.  In the mean time is there an 
issue with continuing to use the database?  Will the orphaned object_ref 
records cause a problem.  (doesn't seem like they would).

Here are the details:

mysql> select tid from transaction where tid <=  255911127406517196 and 
packed=true order by tid desc limit 1;
+--------------------+
| tid                |
+--------------------+
| 255908476364112230 | -- the last transaction marked as packed
+--------------------+


mysql> select count(*) from transaction where tid >= 255908476364112230 and tid 
< 255911127406517196 order by tid desc;
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
|    11088 | -- this is the number of transactions that seem to have been 
packed without being marked as packed.
+----------+

mysql> select count(*) from transaction where tid > 255911127406517196;
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
|   178909 | -- number of transactions that haven't made it into the object_ref 
table
+----------+

mysql> select count(*) from object_ref where tid > 255911127406517196;
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
|        0 | -- confirmation that the transactions after 255911127406517196 
have not made it into the object_ref table
+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> select count(*) from object_ref where tid >= 255911127406517196;
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
|     3907 | -- confirmation again
+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> select count(*) from object_ref where tid = 255911127406517196;
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
|     3907 | -- and again
+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
