    Note that this is a slightly modified version of pystone -- the
    original version does not accept the parameter to main().  The
    parameter is the number of loops to run through the test, and the
    default is 50000, which is far too many to run this year.

 6. The PyPy project uses test-driven-development.  Right now, there are
    a couple of different categories of tests which can be run.

    Finally, there are some more advanced tests (which are derived from
    some of the standard CPython tests).  These are not part of the unit
-   tests, because they take longer than the standard unit tests.
