Agreed, I'll add it for v7.

I don't know if it is more likely to fail or not, which is why multiple
iterations are tested.

If you can tell me with certainty that multiple iterations always will
behave the same way I would be happy to remove the multiple iterations.

Granted, there are a few other tests that also do stress testing as a
part of what they test. So maybe this is redundant either way?
