Depends on number of cores you have; I have 4 cores, 8 threads
with HT; so I needed to have a lot of load on the machine to get
it to fail (it takes about 1 minute).

cmogstored is intended to run on machines that were already
saturated in CPU/memory from other processes, but not HDD I/O
bandwidth.

SIGCONT does, via:

   perl -i -p -e 's/SIGURG/SIGCONT/g' `git ls-files`

I don't have other arches (well, 32-bit x86, but I've never
really tried cmogstored on that, even).

Just running one test won't trigger since it needs a busy
machine; but:

	make test/mgmt_auto_adjust.log
	(and "rm make test/mgmt_auto_adjust.log" if you want to rerun)

Thanks for looking into this.  Fwiw, cmogstored uses epoll in
strange and uncommon ways which has led to kernel bugfixes
in the past.
