The old version had "for count in 10 100 1000 10000; do". Mine has 10
as non-expensive, and "for count in 100 1000 10000; do" as expensive.

I.e. I'm running the first test batch from the old tests.

I have no idea whether it actually needs to run 10..10k times, I
didn't try to grok the actual test code.

It all touched the same bits, it'd be nastier to split it up IMO.
