Cog Linux 2732 test results

Hi Eliot, I've finally had a chance to let my app wail on Cog Linux
2732 and wanted to give you update.

It's phreaking great. I've not had a single crash even after a week
straight of as many as 18 Cog cores running simultaneously across 5
quad core machines, each doing work involving lots of become
operations.

You've really helped Squeak with Cog. Way to go.

Hopefully we can get Tim's BitBlt and Craig's Spoon changes integrated
without breaking anything! :)

Thank you Cris for this test report.

I assume you compiled the Cog VMs yourself, did you?

Clearly I'm not Chris, but I assumed he just picked up one of the
prebuilt binaries from
http://www.mirandabanda.org/files/Cog/VM/VM.r2732/

No, I'm using the official binaries Eliot distributed.

Unfortunately, I just discovered 2732 runs less than half the speed of
2640.. :-(

This is known and the fix is deployed here at cadence. It's a snafu that affects only linux. I should build and release VMs by Monday.
