Something that's been helping me squirrel out "wacky" and "fun" bugs in multiprocessing is running the tests in a loop - sometimes hundreds of times. Right now, I hack this up with a bash script, but I'm sitting here wondering if adding a "loop for x iterations" option to regrtest.py would be useful to others as well.

Any thoughts? Does anyone hate this idea with the power of a thousand suns?

+1 for having this in regrtest. I've wished for this in the past, and ended up going the bash route, same as you.
