When a Workgen workload is executed, a workload.stat file is generated by default that contains all the stats related to the workload.

This file can be modified by modifying the options.report_file field of the workload directly from the Python script. For instance:

    pop_workload = Workload(context, thread)
    pop_workload.options.report_file=''

The example above would print everything to stdout.

The goal of this ticket is to be able to fully disable the generation of statistics. The documentation says to set the report_interval field to 0 to disable but even when this is set, the workload.stat file is generated.
