yeah. That's why I thought it had fixed it up until that point.
My subsequent overnight run hit a different bug (that unpinning an unpinned lock bug in the scheduler)
so I haven't had it happen since.

basically

while [ 1 ];
do
  trinity -N 1000000 -q -l off -C256 -a64 -x fsync -x fdatasync -x syncfs -x sync -P INET --enable-fds=sockets
  sudo ipcrm -a
done

(The ipcrm thing is needed for long runs or eventually you oom, because trinity lacks the cleanup smarts)
