Could you introduce a hack creating deterministic server side crashes in
order to test this out? The simplest thing that comes to mind is a rule
like "kick shared memory in the teeth to force a crash after every 100
commits", then see if #100 shows up as expected. Pick two different
small numbers for the interval and you could probably put that on both
sides to simulate all sorts of badness.
