OK, will do on Monday's test run.   Is it possible for me to run this at the 
end of the test run, or do I need to freeze it in the middle to get useful 
data?

Also, we're toying with the idea of testing full_page_writes=off for Solaris.  
The Solaris engineers claim that it should be safe on Sol10 + Sun hardware.  
I'm not entirely sure that's true; is there a destruction test of the bug 
that caused us to remove that option?
