Doesn't the new option cause like a 1000x slowdown in "Dirty memory
time"? I don't think we should merge this until that is understood and
addressed (and it should be at least called out here so that reviewers
can be made aware).

perf_test_create_vm() overwrites this with 100. Did you mean
p.write_percent?
