Storage Execution
Description
Currently the WiredTigerCheckpointThread sleeps for 'syncdelay' seconds. If the 'syncdelay' is changed at runtime, the WiredTigerCheckpointThread will continue to use the previous setting until it expires. So, if a user has the default of 60 seconds, then runs the setParameter cmd to change 'syncdelay' to to 5 seconds, the server won't respond to the new value of 5 for 60 seconds. This test does just that, and finishes testing before the checkpoint thread even sees the new 5 value (note, this is a really old test that doesn't matter much).
