             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Tests
            Reporter: Michael McCandless
             Fix For: 4.0


Some small improvements would go a long ways...

When trying to debug an intermittent fail, I usually run w/ 
-Dtests.verbose=true and w/ many iters.  But because the formatter buffers this 
can hit OOME, so maybe we make an unbuffered formatter.  Also, it'd be nice if 
we could have the formatter discard output for a given iter if there was no 
failure, and I think the iters should stop as soon as a failure is hit.

Maybe somehow we make a new tests.mode that would switch on these behaviours?

Unbuffered formatter is also vital when debugging a deadlock...
