      We've been assigned a Buildfailure related to a runtime problem caused by a C++ benchmark running under DEBUG and ASAN.

      https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/BF-26477

      While I haven't yet investigated the cause here, it seems to be some kind of resource exhaustion inside the benchmark framework.

      The thing about it is that I'm not sure of the value of running benchmarks under ASAN at all, since they're all about measuring performance, and ASAN imposes enormous performance penalties that would make the results of these computationally intensive tests useless.

      Should ASAN and DEBUG builds skip C++ benchmarks?
