Deadlock with fill100K benchmark

      I am not sure if this is a leveldb issue or a wiredtiger issue, but the fill100k benchmark seems to deadlock when launched with multiple threads (>= 16). With lower number of threads, the deadlock does not seem to occur.

      Here is the command I use:

      time env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../wiredtiger/.libs:../wiredtiger/ext/compressors/snappy/.libs/ ./db_bench_wiredtiger --cache_size=17179869184 --threads=64 --db=/tmpfs/leveldb --benchmarks=fill100K &> /dev/null
      

      I am using the develp branch of wiredtiger (commit 72020c57fbd6673ad45d32f6f07572e7cd819aac).

      Some debug information; I have not yet looked at the code:

      • Most threads are waiting in a select() call. Here is the backtrace:

      Hope it can help.

      (Note: this deadlock is not really an issue for me... Currently I am just looking for workloads that really stress the memory subsystem )
