Ok, thanks, for the info, Mark. I'll try to reproduce it here. FWIW,
we should probably add this to xfstests as a "stress" test. i.e. not
part of the auto group, but something that uses the scale parameters
to determine runtime. then add all the other tests that have scale
parameters to the same group, and if we run ./check --stress <scale>
it runs through all the stress tests with that given scale factor...

Cheers,

Dave.
