Anyone against having a loop option for regrtest?
Something that's been helping me squirrel out "wacky" and "fun" bugs in multiprocessing is running the tests in a loop - sometimes hundreds of times. Right now, I hack this up with a bash script, but I'm sitting here wondering if adding a "loop for x iterations" option to regrtest.py would be useful to others as well. Any thoughts? Does anyone hate this idea with the power of a thousand suns? -jesse

+1 for having this in regrtest. I've wished for this in the past, and ended up going the bash route, same as you. Collin

If somebody has the power of 1000 Suns at their disposal, maybe they can contribute a few buildbots?
Wishful-thinking-is-the-order-of-the-day-ly y'rs,
Sorry I had to take mine down. That being said, I need to rummage up a mac mini with a lot of ram and possibly fire up VMWare fusion/virtualbox on it to have an os/x/linux/windows buildbot mini farm.
