Note that some problems only show up on slower devices (because then
the race window is wider), and sometimes they only show up on fast
devices.  This is why I've been doing runs on both HDD's and on tmpfs
kvm disk image files.

If the image file is used as a disk file for KVM, that should avoid
the serialization bottleneck of using the loop device.
