As it will be somewhat hard to prove the durability guarantees of commit without special heroics, unless someone can suggest a mechanism.
Could you introduce a hack creating deterministic server side crashes in order to test this out? The simplest thing that comes to mind is a rule like "kick shared memory in the teeth to force a crash after every 100 commits", then see if #100 shows up as expected. Pick two different small numbers for the interval and you could probably put that on both sides to simulate all sorts of badness.
