New submission from Larry Hastings <la...@hastings.org>:

Tools/parser/test_unparse.py is the regression test suite for Tools/unparse.  
To save time, if the "cpu" resource is not enabled it only test unparsing ten 
files.  However it picks these files at random.

It would be nice if the test was 100% repeatable.  It might be nice if it 
picked the most tortuous ten files.  What ten are the most tortuous is not 
immediately clear, but a nice first approximation might be to pick the largest 
ten, provided the stat calls don't themselves make the test slow again.
