I'm sure that *everybody* on this list would *love* to know how you find a reliable way to reproduce all the bugs that start off with "after X days of uptime". But when you're chasing what might be a race condition with a very small timing hole, you may need an event to happen several million times before the accumulated chance of hitting it becomes appreciable.
