Well... if we had a good load generator (many threads; many small,
medium, large transactions; many inserts; many reads) I'd run it to
death on my idle server until 7.4 is released, at which point that
server won't be idle anymore.
I tried building one of the OSDL DB benchmark, but after installing
the dependencies which are only announced by the failure of configure
to run, it errored out with a C syntax error... at that point I gave
up.
