I just want to clarify. The test completes in secs normally. When I run this on the 24 core box from the console, other 
ssh connections immediately freeze. The console is frozen. You can't ping the box and it has stayed that way for up to 
1/2 hour before I reset it. I'm trying to get some kind of stack trace to see what it is doing. To the extent that I've 
been able to trace it or print it, the "next code" always seems to be __sched_core_update_cookie(p);
