.. it irks me because they have the tools to do this. They can just spin up
an i386 VM with limited RAM, like 16mb or 32mb. See everything fail
miserably. Then rinse, fix and repeat. They didn't need an arm, ppc or mips
VM to test out the autotune changes. Grr.

Maybe I'll do that with 10-ALPHA1 and report back how things break.
