also note that depending on the amount of disk space and the time to create your "(very) large table" it may not be appropriate to add your
case to this test which is run as part of everyone's nightly run and
may need to be run by every developer as part of a checkin.  I don't
think there is a fixed requirement, but I think for instance we decided
that tests dealing with 2 gig blobs were too big to be forced into
nightly dev run.

How much disk space and time does your case take?

There is another suite of tests called largeData which is intended for
tests with large disk requirements.  If it saves you time you should
feel free to extend the OnlineCompressTest which your own test class and
reuse as much code as possible.

----------------------------------------

I looked at the OnlineCompressTest and realized that to reproduce this case, 
the simplest way is to increase the number of rows added to the table in one of 
the existing testcases. However, I see a following comment in the testcase,

<snip>
     * 4000 rows  - reasonable number of pages to test out, still 1 alloc page
     *
     * note that row numbers greater than 4000 may lead to lock escalation
* issues, if queries like "delete from x" are used to delete all the * rows.
</snip>

This is very relevant to the testcase which I would like to add and so, would 
like to know the Lock Escalation issue here. Has anyone seen this kind of issue 
before ? any pointers ??

The repro attached to the bug has almost similar testcase, I have not seen any 
problems with that so far. So, it might be that the Lock Escalation issue has 
already been fixed. (I did not find any related JIRA for this though). Can 
someone please confirm this ?? I can update the comments if that problem has 
been fixed.

Thanks
