OK.  You might find this useful:

	ftp://ftp.uk.linux.org/pub/linux/sct/vm/mtest.c

which is a small utility I wrote while I was testing the 
swap cache code.  It creates a heap of memory, forks a variable
number of reader and/or writer processes to access that heap,
and touches/modifies the heap randomly from the children.  It 
is very good at testing the swap code for pages shared over 
fork.  It's what I use any time I need to push a box into swap
for VM testing.
