Results of repeating each test three times, showing occasional excursions in 
memory usage.

> I don't know if this is a bug or not.  I'm Jirifying it as a way of 
> remembering an interesting behavior that my testing has shown, so that I can 
> continue developing the testing and  come back to this later.
> ...
> While measuring router memory usage under varying message rate and number of 
> senders -- when I run the same test multiple times, I am occasionally (about 
> 1 in 4 times or so) seeing a test in which memory usage is much higher than 
> the others.
> For example:
>   In this test:
>   {
>     straight-through topology ( 1 sender --> 1 address --> 1 receiver )
>     200 senders
>     200 messages per second
>     100 bytes per message
>   }
> I record router memory usage at the point when all receivers are just hitting 
> 10,000 messages.   (This is because it grows -- see previous JIRA.)
> In three iterations I get the following memory usage:
>    66 MB
>    63 MB
>   181 MB
> Something similar, but less drastic, happened occasionally at lower levels in 
> the test.  
> In this case, this is a tripling of memory usage for the same scenario.  I 
> doubt that this is the result of slightly  different timing in a block 
> allocation of data structures.  What just happened?
> Start by investigating with "qdstat -m"  and see if that shows some or all of 
> the difference.
